Hyoscine butylbromide significantly decreases motion artefacts and allows better delineation of anatomic structures in mp-MRI of the prostate

Abstract: • Hyoscine butylbromide (HBB) improved image quality in over 2/3 of patients. • Severe artefacts were reduced after HBB in more than 20%. • The number of non-diagnostic MRI was reduced to <1% after HBB. • HBB effect was independent of bodyweight and prostate volume. • No side effects of HBB were reported in this study population.

“…Gadoteridol (ProHance ® , Bracco) was used as the contrast media in a weightadapted standard dose (0.2 mmol/kg body weight) with an injection rate of 3 ml/s and subsequent 50 ml of normal saline. All patients received preliminary butylscopolamine (20 mg Buscopan ® , Boehringer Ingelheim Pharma) to suppress bowel peristalsis [15].…”

“…ERC coils largely immobilize the prostate in the lower pelvis and thus artifacts from rectal peristalsis might be less frequent. However, there is emerging evidence that administration of antispasmodics can reduce the occurrence and intensity of motion artifacts in prostate MRI which might be useful for non-ERC examinations [25][26][27]. On the other hand, there was more distortion of the prostate, more motion artifacts, and other artifacts when the ERC was utilized.…”

“…The use of an intestinal spasmolytic leads to a relevant reduction of artifacts caused by the natural movement of the bowel and thus to an increase in image quality and should therefore be applied routinely [20][21][22][23]. Individual studies, but without a prospective comparison within a patient and in some cases with the use of an endorectal coil, assessed the effect to be lower [24,25].…”
