Abstract
Multiparametric magnetic resonance imaging plays an important role in the detection
of clinically significant prostate cancer. However, there is some overlap between
prostate cancer and granulomatous prostatitis. We describe the imaging features of
granulomatous prostatitis, which frequently mimics prostate cancer, and differential
diagnosis between these conditions according to Prostate Imaging-Reporting and Data
System (PI-RADS) version.
