Role of diffusion weighted MR imaging in characterization of focal kidney and upper urinary tract lesions

Role of diffusion weighted MR imaging in characterization of focal kidney and upper urinary tract lesions

Previous studies suggested that the apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) value could help in the differentiation and characterization of the benign and malignant renal masses.However, there is still wide overlap in the ADC values between the benign and malignant tumors. Objectives: To retrospectivel...
