Diagnostic utility of diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging in two common renal tumors

Abstract: Abstract. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the utility of diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging (DWI) in the diagnosis of common renal tumors. Conventional magnetic resonance imaging and DWI were performed on 85 patients with renal lesions (54 renal carcinoma and 31 renal angiomyolipoma cases). The apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) values in each case at b=800 sec/mm 2 were measured in the ADC maps using a statistical software package. The 54 cases of renal cell carcinoma showed a high s… Show more

T 1 mapping (relaxometry) is a highly versatile technique that probes tissue microstructure, serving as a potential imaging marker for different pathological conditions such as fibrosis and inflammation.…”
