Diffusion-Weighted MRI Reflects Proliferative Activity in Primary CNS Lymphoma
PURPOSE To investigate if apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) values within primary central nervous system lymphoma correlate with cellularity and proliferative activity in corresponding histological samples. MATERIALS AND METHODS Echo-planar diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance images obtained from 21 patients with primary central nervous system lymphoma were reviewed retrospectively. Regi...
متن کاملdiffusion weighted mri for hepatic fibrosis: impact of b-value
background hepatic fibrosis is a typical complication of chronic liver diseases resulting in cirrhosis that remains a major public health problem worldwide. liver biopsy is currently the gold standard for diagnosing and staging hepatic fibrosis. percutaneous liver biopsy; however, is an invasive procedure with risks of complications. therefore, there is need for alternative non-invasive techniq...
متن کاملDiffusion-weighted MRI for body imaging applications
Diffusion is the thermally induced motion of water molecules in biological tissues, called Brownian motion. Diffusion-weighted MRI (DWI) by means of apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) calculation can be used for in vivo quantification of the combined effects of capillary perfusion and diffusion. With the advent of echoplanar imaging (EPI), DWI of the abdomen has become possible with fast imag...

متن کاملWhole-body diffusion-weighted imaging in lymphoma
The current evidence regarding the usefulness of whole-body diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging (DWI) in lymphoma is reviewed. DWI is capable of combining anatomical and functional information and is becoming a valuable tool in oncology, in particular for staging purposes. DWI may prove to be a useful biomarker in clinical decision making for patients with lymphoma. Large-scaled prosp...
