UroLift artifact negatively affects prostate magnetic resonance image quality with greater impact in the mid-basal transition zone, obscuring a third of the gland on diffusion-weighted images. Patients considering this procedure should be counseled on the impact of this device on image quality and its potential implications for any image-guided prostate cancer workup.
