## Abstract The clinical usefulness of the application of spin‐echo diffusion‐weighted imaging in the evaluation of extraaxial cysts and epidermoid tumors is demonstrated in a series of 15 patients. Apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) images based on intravoxel incoherent motion (IVIM) were obtain
## Abstract ## Purpose To evaluate whether measurement of apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) and pure diffusion coefficient (__D__) can help to characterize solid pancreatic masses. ## Materials and Methods Diffusion‐weighted MR imaging was performed in both a patient group (__n__ = 71; pancre
