Value of 3.0 T diffusion-weighted imaging in discriminating thecoma and fibrothecoma from other adnexal solid masses

BACKGROUND To investigate the value of diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) at 3.0 T (3T), and especially the apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC), in discriminating ovarian thecoma from other adnexal solid masses. METHODS Eighteen thecomas or fibrothecomas, 14 ligamentous leiomyomas, and 24 other ovarian solid tumors underwent prospective DWI magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in addition to routi...

Value of diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging in the characterization of complex adnexal masses.

AIMS AND BACKGROUND The aim of the study was to define the role of diffusion-weighted imaging in the characterization of adnexal complex masses, with particular regard to the distinction between benign and malignant lesions. Conflicting results on this topic have emerged from studies in the last decade, with a consequent substantial limitation to the use of this relatively novel technique in cl...

Evaluation of primary adnexal masses by 3T MRI: categorization with conventional MR imaging and diffusion-weighted imaging

UNLABELLED BACKGROUND To investigate the 3.0-Tesla (3 T) magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) characteristics of primary adnexal lesions for discriminating benign from malignant lesions. METHODS One hundred thirty-nine patients with pathologically proven primary adnexal masses referred for 3 T MRI assessment preoperatively were included. Baseline characteristics, components, and conventional M...

Value of MRI in Characterizing Adnexal Masses.

Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) increases the specificity of imaging evaluation for adnexal masses, especially when they are indeterminate on ultrasound, very large or when further imaging is required to establish tissue characteristics. This article is a pictorial essay describing the value of MRI in characterizing adnexal masses.

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...
