The main conclusions of this study were that (1) the semiautomated approach reduced interobserver segmentation variability; (2) the segmentation accuracy of the semiautomated approach, as well as the accuracies of recently published methods from other groups, were within the range of observed expert variability in manual prostate segmentation; and (3) further efforts in the development of computer-assisted segmentation would be most productive if focused on improvement of segmentation accuracy and reduction of variability within the prostatic apex and base.

This paper demonstrates the incidence of CSD for different PIRADS grades. The low incidence of CSD in PIRADS 3 lesions suggests that in low clinical risk men, follow up in priority to biopsy may be an alternative treatment pathway.

A new method of diagnosing and defining functional popliteal artery entrapment syndrome is described. By combining ultrasonography and magnetic resonance imaging techniques with dynamic plantarflexion of the ankle against resistance, functional entrapment can be demonstrated and the location of the arterial occlusion identified. This combination of imaging modalities will also define muscular anatomy for guiding intervention such as surgery or Botox injection.
