Combined intravoxel incoherent motion diffusion-weighted MR imaging and magnetic resonance spectroscopy in differentiation between osteoporotic and metastatic vertebral compression fractures

Abstract Purpose Our purpose was to combine intravoxel incoherent motion diffusion-weighted MR imaging (IVIM-DWI) and magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS) to differentiate osteoporotic fractures from osteolytic metastatic vertebral compression fractures (VCFs). Methods A total of 70 patients with V...
