No. You may feel a brief cool sensation when contrast dye is injected, but the scan itself is painless.

Test Results
Results and Interpretations
| Finding / Observation | Description | General Interpretation / Significance |
|---|---|---|
| Low PI-RADS 1 | Normal signal | Very low likelihood of cancer, routine follow-up |
| Intermediate PI-RADS 3 | Suspicious but not clear | May need MRI-guided biopsy |
| High PI-RADS 4–5 | Definite lesion with restricted diffusion | High chance of clinically significant cancer |
| Enlarged central zone | Symmetrical, smooth enlargement | Likely benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) |
| Fluid-filled cavity | Bright on T2, dark on DWI | Suggestive of prostatic abscess |
| Bone Lesions | Examination of the visible pelvic bones for any suspicious areas. | The presence of lesions in the bone could indicate metastatic cancer, signifying advanced disease. |
| Other Pelvic Findings | Any incidental findings noted in the bladder, rectum, or other visible structures. | These findings may be unrelated to the prostate but could require further investigation. |
