preoperative grading of astrocytic supratentorial brain tumors with diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging and apparent diffusion coefficient
background diffusion-weighted imaging (dwi) is a form of magnetic resonance imaging (mri) based on measuring the random brownian motion of water molecules within the biological tissues and is particularly useful in tumor characterization. objectives the purpose of this study was to evaluate the diagnostic value of dw mri and the apparent diffusion coefficient (adc) for preoperative grading of a...
متن کاملDiffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging in evaluation of gastric cancer.
OBJECTIVE To investigate the role of diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging (DW-MRI) in the diagnosis of gastric tumors and discuss the diagnostic importance and potential use of apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) measurements. MATERIALS AND METHODS Beginning in March 2009, DW-MRI was added to the routine abdominal and pelvic MR examination for all patients imaged at our institution....
متن کاملDiffusion Weighted Magnetic Resonance Imaging by Diffusion Temperal Spectroscopy
Diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging (DWI) provides a unique approach for probing the microstructure of biological tissues and is an important tool for both clinical and research applications, such as for the diagnosis of stroke and detection of cancer. However, conventional DWI measurements using pulsed gradient spin echo (PGSE) methods cannot in practice probe very short diffusion ti...
متن کاملRelationship between Gleason score and apparent diffusion coefficients of diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging in prostate cancer patients.
INTRODUCTION We assessed the correlation between the apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) and pathological Gleason score (GS) of prostate cancer patients. METHODS A total of 125 patients who underwent multiparametric magnetic resonance imaging before radical prostatectomy for prostate cancer were included in this study. ADC values were compared with different GS. We used receiver operating ch...
