Quantitative Diffusion-Weighted MR Imaging: Is There a Prognostic Role in Noninvasively Predicting the Histopathologic Type of Uveal Melanomas?

Quantitative Diffusion-Weighted MR Imaging: Is There a Prognostic Role in Noninvasively Predicting the Histopathologic Type of Uveal Melanomas?

Histopathologically, uveal melanomas (UMs) can be classified as spindle cell, mixed cell and epithelioid cell type, with the latter having a more severe prognosis. The aim of our study was to assess the correlation between the apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) and the histologic type of UMs in or...
