BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: The purpose of this work was to evaluate whether
diffusion-weighted MR imaging can be used in differentiating residual or recurrent head and …

Background: Differentiation between the viable and necrotic parts of a tumor is essential for
accurate biopsy results and for treatment planning. Purpose: To determine the role of …

Purpose: To investigate the value of diffusion weighted magnetic resonance imaging (DW-
MRI) in differentiating persistent or recurrent head and neck squamous cell carcinoma …

PURPOSE: To evaluate whether apparent diffusion coefficients (ADCs) calculated from
diffusion-weighted echo-planar magnetic resonance (MR) images can be used to …

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Several studies have reported on the clinical utility of DWI
in head and neck cancer, but none of these studies compared HASTE with EPI-DWI in …

PURPOSE: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the usefulness of diffusion-weighted
(DW) MR imaging with split acquisition of fast spin-echo signals (SPLICE) in the tissue …

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: High b-value DWI has been expected to have an
additional diagnostic role and demonstrated some promising results in head and neck …

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Although diffusion-weighted imaging combined with
morphologic MRI (DWIMRI) is used to detect posttreatment recurrent and second primary …

PURPOSE We aimed to evaluate the role of apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) values
calculated from diffusion-weighted imaging for head and neck lesion characterization in …

The feasibility of performing diffusion-weighted MRI (DWI) of primary undifferentiated
nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) has not been assessed and it is unknown whether the …
