High grade (Gleason pattern 5) tumors can undergo comedo-type necrosis producing malignant calcifications which we hypothesize can be reliably detected using computed tomography (CT) and/or MRI. Detection of malignant calcifications in areas of Gleason pattern 5 tumor will improve the accuracy of pre-operative localization and grading in prostatic carcinoma.
