Objective To compare real-time sonoelastography with T2-weighted magnetic resonance imaging( MRI T2WI) in diagnosis of prostate cancer. Methods Ninety-five patients with an elevated prostate-specific antigen( PSA) level were investigated with real-time sonoelastography and MRI T2MI for prostate cancer diagnosis before systematic prostate biopsy. With pathological results of biopsy as gold standard the diagnostic value of sonoelastography and MRI T2WI was assessed. Results The sensitivity,specificity and accurate rate of sonoelastography for diagnosis of prostate cancer were85. 29%,70. 49%,75. 59% respectively and those of MRI T2WI were 79. 41%,81. 97%,81. 05%,respectively( all P 〉0. 05). Conclusion Both Real-Time sonoelastography and MRI T2WI are of value in differential diagnosis of prostate tumors.
