b Day-7 post-treatment axial T2-weighted image shows a heterogeneous signal of the treated lobe extending to the peripheral and transitional zone (arrowhead).
In essence, the prostate borders and well-identifiable intraprostatic structures (urethra, BPH nodules, tissue borders between peripheral and transitional zones) were aligned using constrained intensity-based, free-form deformable registration.
Because digital rectal examination (DRE) is only effective for identifying posterior peripheral zone tumors, it failed to detect many tumors that originated in the anterior peripheral zone, central zone, and transitional zones [ 3] as well as tumors that were too small to be palpated.
The human prostate has four zones: peripheral, central, transitional, and fibromuscular stroma.
In the peripheral blood, transitional, naïve mature and memory B cells and plasmablasts, and more rarely plasma cells, can be identified.
The human prostate is a complex ductal-acinar gland that is divided into three anatomically distinct zones: peripheral, transitional, and central zones, which are surrounded by a dense and continuous fibromuscular stroma [ 16– 16].
Three major populations of circulating B cells have been reported in peripheral blood: transitional, circulating mature naïve and memory B cells discriminated on the basis of relative distribution of the markers CD24 and CD38.
Recently, a B-cell signature of tolerance has been described in immunosuppressive drug free long-term surviving kidney transplant recipients (KTRs), including an increase in the total number of peripheral B cells (4) and a relative increase in naïve and transitional B cells, when compared to KTRs with stable graft function or biopsy proven chronic rejection (5, 6).
Benign prostate hyperplasia, smooth muscle hyperplasia and fibromuscular hyperplasia is located mostly in the central zone (CZ) and transitional zone (TZ), whereas cancer is primarily located in the peripheral zone (PZ).
"This is so temporary and transitional.
