Readers selected their preferred examination from each pair and assessed every single examination using six quality criteria on 4-point scales.

Analysis of pooled responses for both sequences from all readers shows no significant preference for FSC or ERC. Analysis of the individual sequences revealed a pooled preference for the FSC in T2WI (38.7% vs 17.8%) and for the ERC in DWI (50.9% vs 19.6%). Patients\u2019 weight was the only weak predictor of a preference for the ERC acquisition (<jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic> = 0.04). SNR and CNR were significantly higher in the ERC acquisitions (<jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>&lt;0.001) except CNR differentiating tumor lesions from benign prostate (<jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>=0.1).<\/jats:p>\n              <\/jats:sec><jats:sec>\n                <jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n                <jats:p>Although readers have strong individual preferences, comparable subjective image quality can be obtained for prostate MRI with an ERC and the novel FSC. ERC imaging might be particularly valuable for sequences with inherently lower SNR as DWI and larger patients whereas the FSC is generally preferred in T2WI.
