16.4T high-resolution diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) of fixed prostate cancer biopsy has revealed distinct microscopic diffusion environments and tissue architecture consistent with that seen on light microscopy. In this study, we present a new methodology for the visualization of fibromuscular stromal matrix from a prostate biopsy using high-resolution DTI-tractography.
