Abstract

The magnetic resonance (MR) imaging findings in four patients with mucinous tumors involving the prostate are presented. The MR appearance of these tumors differed from that of typical prostatic adenocarci‐nomas in that the signal intensity on T2‐weighted images approximated or exceeded that of the uninvolved peripheral zone. The unusual appearance of mucinous prostate tumors may present problems in diagnosis and staging with MR imaging.
