The present study was conducted for assessing Magnetic resonance imaging findings of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) patients. The present study was conducted for assessing Magnetic resonance imaging findings of benign prostatic hyperplasia patients. Data of a total of 25 patients with BPH were enrolled. Complete demographic details of all the patients were evaluated. Wasserman NF et al classified BPH types on MRI as follows: type 0, an equal to or less than 25 cm3 prostate showing little or no zonal enlargement; type 1, bilateral TZ enlargement; type 2, retrourethral enlargement; type 3, bilateral TZ and retrourethral enlargement; type 4, solitary or multiple pedunculated enlargement; type 5, pedunculated with bilateral TZ and/or retrourethral enlargement; type 6, subtrigonal or ectopic enlargement; and type 7, other combinations of enlargements. All the details were recorded in Microsoft excel sheet and were assessed using SPSS software. Out of 25 patients, 28 percent and 24 percent of the patients were type 2 and type 4 according to classification as per MRI finding. 20 percent and 16 percent of the patients were type 3 and type 6, whereas 12 percent were type 5 according to classification as per MRI finding.
