Synthetic biparametric MRI (bpMRI) may help alleviate the limited availability of large and representative prostate MRI datasets for deep learning applications. In this work, we present a conditional 3D diffusion framework for anatomy-conditioned synthesis of complete prostate bpMRI from anatomical masks. The framework supports sequential synthesis, in which T2w and diffusion modalities are generated by separately trained models, and joint synthesis, in which all bpMRI modalities are generated simultaneously within a single model. Five configurations were trained using PI-CAI, FastMRI Prostate, and PROSTATEx datasets to investigate different conditioning schemes, target modalities, and synthesis strategies. Evaluation using distribution-based metrics, paired-image similarity, and qualitative assessment demonstrated the feasibility of both synthesis pathways. Joint synthesis achieved competitive distributional fidelity while generating complete bpMRI, whereas direct synthesis of ADC and computed high-b-value DWI outperformed their derivation from synthetic diffusion-weighted images.
