Quantitative features presented in the 3D prostate volume demonstrate variation of signal intensities between features and in different anatomical parts of the prostate. Approximately 20% of highest ranking features were plotted with bone colormap, where lighter colors represent higher values. Amount of nuclei is highest near urethra, representing high density of cells in ducts and urethral muscle layer compared to sparse prostate glandular structures distal to the urethra (a). Energy (sum of squared elements) in grayscale co-occurrence matrix is strongest at the top and bottom of the prostate (b). Histogram of oriented gradients features with 9 pixel window are spread around the prostate (c). Local binary patterns tend to have strong signals around lateral and ventral prostate (d)
