DiagnosisADC of Lesions†ADC of Normal Parenchyma*
Carcinoma (n = 20)2.73 ± 0.65 (2.43–3.04)1.439 ± 0.648 (1.25–1.60)
Adenoma (n = 5)1.93 ± 0.25 (1.63–2.23)1.341 ± 0.245 (1.18–1.57)

  • Note:—ADC indicates apparent diffusion coefficient.

  • * Data are mean ± SD. Data in parentheses are the ranges of the 95% CI.

  • † ADC values are expressed as the (mean ± SD) × 10−3 mm2/s (P < .05).
