From: Two-centre comparative experimental study of biparametric MRI at 3.0 T with and without endorectal coil using kiwifruit (Actinidia deliciosa) as a phantom for human prostate

Fig. 4

Biparametric magnetic resonance imaging at 3.0 T in a green Hayward kiwifruit (Actinidia deliciosa) was performed at site 2 using an endorectal coil included in a multichannel phased-array coil system. Images in the upper panel (a–d) were obtained with air inside the endorectal coil balloon, while images in the lower panel (e–h) were obtained with perfluorocarbon inside the endorectal-coil balloon: axial (a, e) and sagittal (b, f) T2-weighted imaging, axial diffusion-weighted imaging with a b value of 800 s/mm2 (c, g ), and corresponding apparent diffusion coefficient map (d, h) obtained with a reduced field of view
