Signal Intensity of High B-value Diffusion-weighted Imaging for the Detection of Prostate Cancer
Background: Diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) is a main component of multiparametric MRI for prostate cancer detection. Recently, high b value DWI has gained more attention because of its capability for tumor characterization. Objective: To assess based on histopathological findings of transrectal ultrasound (TRUS)-guided prostate biopsy as a reference, an...
متن کاملRole of Apparent diffusion coefficient value in Diffusion Weighted imaging of MRI to assessment of radiotherapy efficiency in the patient with glioma tumor during treatment
Introduction: Glioma is the most common primary malignancy of cerebral neoplasms in adults, which in spite of therapeutic significant efforts, has a very poor prognosis. The current standard treatment of these patients generally includes surgery and radiotherapy or concurrent chemoradiotherapy with 6 courses of adjuvant use of temozolomide tabs. During these years, the nervous...
متن کاملadditional 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 کاملThe potential diagnostic value of diffusion-weighted imaging in acute disseminating encephalomyelitis.
Acute disseminating encephalomyelitis (ADEM) is a treatable inflammatory, demyelinating disorder of the central nervous system. Early application of steroids has been shown to reduce morbidity, therefore, early diagnosis is highly desirable. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is the imaging modality of choice for establishing the diagnosis along with the clinical presentation. The aim of this rep...
متن کاملClinical Significance of Diffusion Weighted Magnetic Resonance Imaging on Treatment Efficacy in MS Patients With Acute Attacks
Background: Despite the existence of various imaging methods, the accurate diagnosis of many neurodegenerative diseases is still controversial. The use of advanced imaging techniques, such as the diffusion weighted imaging can be help the early detection of MS and evaluation of the treatment efficacy in these patients. Materials and method: 24 MS patients with acute attack and thirty healthy s...
