Images depict biopsy-confirmed prostate cancer in a 56-year-old man. (A) Pretreatment axial T2-weighted fast spin-echo MRI scan and (B) apparent diffusion coefficient map acquired with a 3T scanner show the tumor in the left transition zone (arrows). (C) Intraoperative 1.5-T MRI scan shows the contoured rectal wall (red line), prostate margin (blue outline), and region of interest (orange outline). (D) Intraoperative MRI scan shows a focused ultrasound beam path (blue) overlaid on the treatment plan. The rectangular boxes show each sonication spot. (E) Thermal map obtained during treatment shows heat deposition color-coded in red and overlaid on the sonication spot. (F) Axial gadobutrol-enhanced MRI scan obtained immediately after treatment shows the devascularized ablated volume (arrows). (G) Corresponding T2-weighted fast spin-echo 3T MRI scan obtained at 24 months after ablation shows fibrosis and volume loss in the left transition zone (arrows). Findings from a biopsy showed scar tissue, negative for malignancy at the treatment site.
