Eligibility
Age
18 Years to 99 Years
Inclusion criteria
Inclusion criteria: Patients with biopsy-proven prostate cancer who are scheduled for a prostatectomy

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| The robustness of multiparametric imaging for planning of dose painting radiotherapy of prostate cancer is investigated. The variation in the prediction of tumor probability is determined in a test-retest setting. | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| • Determine the reproducibility of multi-parametric quantitative MRI • Determine whether there are differences in reproducibility of multi-parametric quantitative MRI between centers • Determine the impact of variations in predicted tumor probability on the planned treatment dose • Validate the predicted tumor probability with whole-mount section histology of prostatectomy specimen | — |
