ABSTRACT BACKGROUND Apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) values assist
differentiating malignancy grades in pediatric cerebellar tumors. Previous studies reported …

Purpose To test whether there is correlation between cell densities and apparent diffusion
coefficient (ADC) metrics of common pediatric cerebellar tumors. Materials and Methods …

Background The role of diffusion weighted imaging (DWI) to reliably differentiate tumor types
and grades in pediatric cerebellar tumors is controversial. We aimed to clarify the …

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) and apparent diffusion
coefficient (ADC) maps provide information at MR imaging that may reflect cell attenuation …

RATIONALE AND OBJECTIVES: The aim of this study was to identify clinically useful
tumor/normal brain apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) ratios for distinguishing common …

Background: MRI, which has high sensitivity in brain tumor detection, cannot reliably
determine tumor grading or histology. Diffusion-weighted imaging and apparent diffusion …

We assess a diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) analysis technique as a potential basis for
computer-aided diagnosis (CAD) of pediatric posterior fossa tumors. A retrospective medical …

Introduction The purpose of our study was to test the accuracy and applicability of decision
rules utilizing apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) ratios on accurate preoperative diagnosis …

For certain clinical circumstances, the differentiation between cerebellar medulloblastoma
and brainstem glioma is essential. We aimed to evaluate the role played by the apparent …

Rationale and objectives Classifying brain tumors is challenging, but recently developed
imaging techniques offer the opportunity for neuroradiologists and neurosurgeons to …
