Whole-body diffusion-weighted MRI: tips, tricks, and pitfalls.
OBJECTIVE We examine the clinical impetus for whole-body diffusion-weighted MRI and discuss how to implement the technique with clinical MRI systems. We include practical tips and tricks to optimize image quality and reduce artifacts. The interpretative pitfalls are enumerated, and potential challenges are highlighted. CONCLUSION Whole-body diffusion-weighted MRI can be used for tumor staging...

متن کاملThe physical basis of diffusion-weighted MRI.
Diffusion-weighted (DW) magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is the only technique that permits a non-invasive in vivo assessment of water molecular diffusion, which reflects tissue configuration at a microscopic level. Therefore, this technique appears to be particularly useful in monitoring brain abnormalities. However, the quantitative measurement of diffusion is not without problems, which may ...
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 کاملComparison of diffusion-weighted MRI acquisition techniques for normal pancreas at 3.0 Tesla.
PURPOSE We aimed to optimize diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) acquisitions for normal pancreas at 3.0 Tesla. MATERIALS AND METHODS Thirty healthy volunteers were examined using four DWI acquisition techniques with b values of 0 and 600 s/mm2 at 3.0 Tesla, including breath-hold DWI, respiratory-triggered DWI, respiratory-triggered DWI with inversion recovery (IR), and free-breathing DWI with I...
