Quantitative measurements of prostatic zones by MRI and their dependence on prostate size: possible clinical implications in prostate cancer
Aim: Many studies support an inverse relationship between benign prostate hypertrophy (BPH) size and incidence of prostate cancer (PCa), but the causal link between these conditions is poorly understood. Recent studies suggest that a growing transition zone (TZ) in the prostate may induce pressure o...
