| Abstract: | The value of magnetic resonance (MR) imaging in diagnosing clinically suspected müllerian duct cysts was assessed in six patients. MR imaging correctly demonstrated the abnormality to be intraprostatic, consistent with the diagnosis of müllerian duct cysts in four patients, and allowed the diagnosis to be excluded in the other two. The demonstration of prostatic zonal anatomy, the ability to obtain direct images in all three orthogonal planes, and a large field of view make MR imaging valuable in the study of suspected müllerian duct cysts. |
