## Abstract Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) remains the standard modality for the local staging of gynecological malignancies but it has several limitations, particularly for lymph node staging or evaluating peritoneal carcinomatosis. Consequently, there has been a growing interest in functional i
## Abstract ## Purpose To show the signal intensity varies with shot number in diffusion‐weighted (DW) echo‐planar imaging (EPI) and affects apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) calculation. ## Materials and Methods This prospective study was performed on 35 adult patients and 20 volunteers. Mea
## Abstract ## Purpose To determine the utility of diffusion‐weighted MR imaging (DWI) for the diagnosis of adrenal tumors. ## Materials and Methods Forty‐two patients (24 men and 18 women; age, 61.5 ± 12.7 years old; range, 34–86 years) with 43 adrenal tumors (11 functioning cortical adenomas,
## Abstract ## Purpose To measure for the first time the apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) values in anatomical regions of the prostate for normal and patient groups, and to investigate its use as a differentiating parameter between healthy and malignant tissue within the patient group. ## Mat
## Abstract ## Purpose To compare the apparent diffusion coefficients (ADCs) of myxoid and nonmyxoid soft‐tissue tumors using line‐scan diffusion‐weighted imaging (LSDWI), and to investigate the myxoid matrix influence on ADCs of soft‐tissue tumors. ## Materials and Methods This study enrolled 4
