Purpose To determine if whole-tumor histogram and texture analyses using intravoxel incoherent motion (IVIM) parameters values could differentiate the pathologic characteristics of locally advanced gastric cancer. Methods Eighty patients with histologically confirmed locally advanced gastric cancer who received surgery in our institution were retro...

Intravoxel incoherent motion (IVIM) studies are performed with different acquisition protocols. Comparing them requires knowledge of echo time (TE) dependencies. The TE-dependence of the biexponential perfusion fraction f is well-documented, unlike that of its triexponential counterparts f1 and f2 and the biexponential and triexponential pseudodiff...

The study of muscle health has become more relevant lately, due to global aging and a higher incidence of musculoskeletal pathologies. Current exploration techniques, such as electromyography, do not provide accurate spatial information. The objective of this work is to perform a systematic review of the literature to synthesize the contributions t...

Multi-parametric tissue characterisation is demonstrated using a 4-minute protocol based on diffusion trace acquisitions. Three diffusion regimes are covered simultaneously: pseudo-perfusion, Gaussian, and non-Gaussian diffusion. The clinical utility of this method for fast multi-parametric mapping for brain tumours is explored. A cohort of 17 brai...

Purpose The goal of current study was to introduce noninvasive and reproducible MRI methods for in vivo functional assessment of lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD). Methods Forty-four patients with pathologically confirmed LUAD were included in this study. All the lesions were classified as adenocarcinoma in situ (AIS), minimally invasive adenocarcinoma (M...
