Recent works have demonstrated the feasibility of prostate multiparametric MRI (mpMRI) at 7T with improved resolution compared to mpMRI at 3T. However, the clinical relevance of finer anatomic details versus the drawbacks of increased imaging artifacts at 7T has yet to be investigated. In this work, we conducted a retrospective, multi-reader clinical evaluation of 19 paired mpMRI studies at 3T and 7T. The primary outcome of interest was accuracy of prostate cancer detection, with image quality and artifacts as secondary outcomes.
