Role of diffusion-weighted MRI in characterization of mediastinal masses
Abstract Background Diffusion MR imaging (DWI) is a widely available non-invasive non-contrast functional MR imaging technique with short acquisition time. It helps in the analysis of tissue characteristics based on the diffusion of water protons within the tissue. Quantitative assessment of a mass...
