Added value of histogram analysis of ADC in predicting radiation-induced temporal lobe injury of patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma treated by intensity-modulated radiotherapy

Added value of histogram analysis of ADC in predicting radiation-induced temporal lobe injury of patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma treated by intensity-modulated radiotherapy

Key points Histogram parameters from pretreatment ADC maps are associated with RTLI in NPC. The ADC and combined models show better performance than the T stage alone. The combined model shows excellent performance in predicting RTLI in different subgroups.
