In this study, apparent water diffusion coefficients in hormone-treated rat uteri were measured by diffusion-weighted NMR imaging. Four groups of ovariectomized, mature young rats were treated with estrogen, progesterone, estrogen plus progesterone, or saline (as control). It was found that water di

## Abstract ## Purpose To evaluate the use of apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) measurements based on diffusionโweighted MRI (DWI) to assess stage of liver disease. ## Materials and Methods A total of 31 patients who underwent both a liver biopsy and DWI and 132 patients who only underwent DW
The optimization of acquisition parameters for precise measurement of diffusion in anisotropic systems is described. First, an algorithm is presented that minimizes the bias inherent in making measurements with a fixed set of gradient vector directions by spreading out measurements in 3-dimensional
## Abstract A magnetic resonance imaging method is presented for quantifying the degree to which water diffusion in biologic tissues is nonโGaussian. Since tissue structure is responsible for the deviation of water diffusion from the Gaussian behavior typically observed in homogeneous solutions, th
## Abstract ## Purpose To demonstrate the feasibility of sequential diffusionโweighted (DW) and perfusionโweighted (PW) magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of a recently developed porcine stroke model and to evaluate the evolution of cerebral perfusion and the apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) ove
