Hyaluronan (HA) is one of the extracellular-matrix components involved in wound healing, tumour growth and metastasis. Due to the limited data on HA expression in benign and malignant breast lesions, we analyzed its presence in these lesions by using the biotinylated-hyaluronan-binding region and th
## Abstract ## Purpose: To evaluate the influence of the choice of different combinations of __b__βvalues on the __ADC__ and on the diagnostic performance of quantitative diffusion weighted imaging (DWI) in breast lesions. ## Materials and Methods: Seventyβthree patients (90 lesions) underwent 3
