Intravoxel incoherent motion diffusion-weighted imaging and shear wave elastography for evaluating peritumoral liver fibrosis after transarterial chemoembolization in a VX2 rabbit liver tumor model

In this study, we sought to evaluate changes in peritumoral fibrosis after transarterial chemoembolization (TACE) in a rabbit VX2 liver tumor model using intravoxel incoherent motion diffusion-weighted imaging (IVIM DWI) and ultrasound shear wave elastography (SWE). A total of 20 rabbits underwent i...
