Imaging evaluation for patients before PAE is mandatory to exclude other possible diseases or malignancies that may also cause LUTSs and help identify the origin of the prostatic artery (PA) (1). Magnetic resonance (MR) imaging with contrast-enhanced MR angiography is a preferred imaging modality owing to its spatial resolution and ability to both demonstrate vascularity and exclude possible malignancy (2).
