additional value of diffusion-weighted imaging to evaluate prognostic factors of breast cancer: correlation with the apparent diffusion coefficient
results a low adc value was associated with lymph node metastasis (p < 0.01) and with high ki-67 protein levels (p = 0.03). there were no significant differences in the adc values among the histological grade (p = 0.48), molecular subtype (p = 0.51), tumor size (p = 0.46), and p53 protein level (p = 0.62). conclusion the pre-operative use of the 3.0 tesla dwi could provide information about the...
متن کاملCorrelation between lymph node apparent diffusion coefficient and positron emission tomography standardised uptake value in paediatric patients with lymphoma
Introduction: Lymphoma staging has traditionally been based upon anatomical imaging with contrast enhanced computed tomography using size criteria to distinguish between involved and uninvolved nodal masses. CT has a reported sensitivity and specificity for identification for diseased nodal sites of 87.5% and 85.6% [1]. The deficiencies of such size criteria in staging lymphoma are well known, ...
متن کاملEvolution of lesions in Susac syndrome at serial MR imaging with diffusion-weighted imaging and apparent diffusion coefficient values.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Susac syndrome is a rare disorder consisting of encephalopathy, hearing loss, and retinal arteriolar occlusions. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the evolution of lesions in this disease by using serial MR imaging with diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) and apparent diffusion coefficients (ADCs). Abnormalities in the nonlesional white matter (NLWM) were also analyz...
متن کاملGlioblastoma treated with postoperative radio-chemotherapy: prognostic value of apparent diffusion coefficient at MR imaging.
PURPOSE To retrospectively evaluate whether the mean, minimum, and maximum apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) of glioblastomas obtained from pretreatment MR images is of prognostic value in patients with glioblastoma. MATERIALS AND METHODS The institutional review board approved our study and waived the requirement for informed patient consent. Between February 1998 and January 2006, 33 pat...
متن کاملGd-EOB-DTPA-Enhanced MR Imaging of the Liver: The Effect on T2 Relaxation Times and Apparent Diffusion Coefficient (ADC)
BACKGROUND To investigate the effect of gadoxetic acid disodium (Gd-EOB-DTPA) on T2 relaxation times and apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) values of the liver and focal liver lesions on a 1.5-T system. MATERIAL/METHODS Magnetic resonance (MR) studies of 50 patients with 35 liver lesions were retrospectively analyzed. All examinations were performed at 1.5T and included T2-weighted turbo sp...
