Role of DWI in evaluation of HCC after radiofrequency ablation compared to dynamic MRI using MRI (3 T)

Abstract Background The purpose of this study was to investigate the diagnostic performance of diffusion weight imaging (DWI), apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) map, normalized ADC liver, and normalized ADC spleen compared to the dynamic contrast-enhanced MRI (DCE-MRI) in the evaluation of residu...
