BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Preliminary data indicate that apparent diffusion
coefficient (ADC) values may be useful in identifying and grading primary cerebral tumors …

PURPOSE: To determine if apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) can be used to differentiate
brain tumors at magnetic resonance (MR) imaging. MATERIALS AND METHODS …

Purpose To determine whether the apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) can be used to
distinguish between tumor tissue and peritumoral brain tissue in cerebral gliomas. Materials …

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: In cerebral gliomas, rCBV correlates with tumor grade and
histologic findings of vascular proliferation. Moreover, ADC assesses water diffusivity and is …

Background: Conventional magnetic resonance (MR) imaging has a number of limitations in
the diagnosis of the most common intracranial brain tumors, including tumor specification …

OBJECTIVE:: To determine whether diffusion-weighted imaging by using minimum apparent
diffusion coefficient (ADCmin) values could differentiate various brain tumors including …

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Diffusion-weighted images (DWIs) have been used to
study various diseases, particularly since echo-planar techniques shorten examination time …

Objective: ADC calculation can improve the diagnostic efficacy of MR imaging in brain tumor
grading and differentiation. Methods: Apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) values and ratios …

PURPOSE: Tumor grading is very important both in treatment decision and evaluation of
prognosis. While tissue samples are obtained as part of most therapeutic approaches …

Purpose: To compare apparent diffusion coefficients (ADCs) with distributed diffusion
coefficients (DDCs) in high‐grade gliomas. Materials and Methods: Twenty patients with …
