Effect of region of interest on ADC and interobserver variability in thyroid nodules
Abstract Background To determine the effect of region of interest (ROI) on tumor’s apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) and interobserver variability in thyroid nodules. Methods Thirty-three individuals with 45 pathologically-confirmed thyroid nodules were assessed by preoperative diffusion-weighted...
