BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: DWI with conventional single-shot EPI of the pituitary
gland is hampered by strong susceptibility artifacts. Our purpose was to evaluate the …

Objectives To evaluate the feasibility of assessment of microvessel perfusion of pituitary
adenomas with intravoxel incoherent motion (IVIM) imaging using single-shot turbo spin …

Purpose To implement a protocol for intravoxel incoherent motion (IVIM) of the thyroid, to
determine base parameters in healthy volunteers, and to provide preliminary experience on …

Background and purpose Turbo spin-echo diffusion-weighted imaging (TSE-DWI) has not
been used for evaluating pituitary lesions. We compared the usefulness of TSE-DWI and …

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: 3D turbo field echo with diffusion-sensitized driven-
equilibrium preparation is a non–echo-planar technique for DWI, which enables high …

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: FOV optimized and constrained undistorted single-shot
imaging provides relatively high-resolution images with few artifacts. This study evaluated …

Background To investigate the monoexponential and biexponential apparent diffusion
parameters in different anatomical regions of the healthy pancreas using intravoxel …

OBJECTIVE: The relationship between tumor consistency and apparent diffusion coefficient
(ADC) values is controversial. We evaluated the role of the ADC using an advanced …

Background Intravoxel incoherent motion (IVIM) parameters derived from iZOOM diffusion-
weighted imaging (DWI) can be used to quantitatively identify malignant thyroid nodules …

Purpose To optimize and test a diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) echo-planar imaging (EPI)
sequence with simultaneous multi-slice (SMS) excitation in the liver and pancreas regarding …
