## Abstract ## Purpose: To investigate the feasibility and usefulness of diffusionβweighted magnetic resonance imaging in the detection of testicular torsion. ## Materials and Methods: Institutional Review Board approval and informed consent from all participants were obtained. Consecutive 28 pa
Diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) is a relatively new magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) technique that can be used to probe the microenvironment of water. Contrast in DWI depends on properties different from traditional T1 and T2 contrast, and is derived form the translational motion of water molecule
## Abstract We present a novel interpretation of nonβmonoexponential diffusionβweighted signal decay with __b__βvalue in terms of the theory of anomalous diffusion. Anomalous diffusion is the theory of diffusing particles in environments that are not locally homogeneous, such as brain tissue. In su
