Can quantitative diffusion-weighted MR imaging differentiate between different subtypes of benign and malignant solitary thyroid nodules?
Abstract Background Diffusion-weighted MR imaging (DWI) is sensitive to changes in the microstructural organization of tissue that may influence water diffusion. It has been utilized in various forms to evaluate head and neck tumors. The apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) value is a quantitative p...
