Abstract：Objective To analyze the clinical value of MR diffusion weighted imaging (DWI) combined with T2WI in the diagnosis of prostate diseases.Methods Seventy patients with prostate diseases underwent conventional MRI T2WI and DWI examination between January 2012 and October 2015. The results were compared with those of pathology to analyze the value of T2WI, DWI and their combination in the diagnosis of prostate diseases.Results ADC value of benign prostate lesion tissues was significantly higher than that of prostate cancer tissues (P<0.05). The accuracy rate of T2WI combined with DWI in the diagnosis of benign prostate diseases and prostate cancer was higher than that of T2WI or DWI alone but there was significant difference between combined diagnosis and T2WI alone (P<0.05).ConclusionDWI combined with T2WI can improve the diagnostic accuracy of prostate diseases. T2WI and DWI have mutually complementary advantages, which can improve the sensitivity, stability and spatial resolution of diagnosis.
