摘要：
A simple method is described that corrects for the intensity inhomogeneity experienced when using endorectal surface coils in prostate imaging. The method uses a series of proton-density-weighted images, which are acquired to demonstrate the sensitivity profile of the coil and used to correct T2-weighted images acquired in the same plane. The results demonstrate improved image uniformity and visualization of prostatic anatomy.
