## Abstract Solitary fibrous tumors (SFTs) of the pleura are rare softβtissue tumors that are presumed to be of mesenchymal origin. Most SFTs are histologically benign, but up to 20% of SFTs may be malignant. In addition, malignant transformation may occur within histologically benign SFTs, though
## Abstract The leastβsquares algorithm is known to bias apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) values estimated from magnitude MR data, although this effect is commonly assumed to be negligible. In this study the effect of this bias on tumor ADC estimates was evaluated in vivo and was shown to intro
