sDWI is qualitatively comparable to aDWI within the prostate. However, hyperintense artifacts are introduced with sDWI in the surrounding pelvic tissue that interfere with quantitative cancer detection and might mask metastases. In the prostate, RSIrs yields superior quantitative csPCa detection than sDWI or aDWI.
