Predicting Grade of Esophageal Squamous Carcinoma: Can Stretched Exponential Model-Based DWI Perform Better Than Bi-Exponential and Mono-Exponential Model?

Predicting Grade of Esophageal Squamous Carcinoma: Can Stretched Exponential Model-Based DWI Perform Better Than Bi-Exponential and Mono-Exponential Model?

BackgroundTo evaluate and compare the potential performance of various diffusion parameters obtained from mono-exponential model (MEM)-, bi-exponential model (BEM)-, and stretched exponential model (SEM)-based diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) in grading of esophageal squamous carcinoma (ESC).Methods...
