Quantitative Evaluation of the Lymph Node Metastases in the Head and Neck Malignancies Using Diffusion-Weighted Imaging and Apparent Diffusion Coefficient Mapping: A Bicentric Study

Quantitative Evaluation of the Lymph Node Metastases in the Head and Neck Malignancies Using Diffusion-Weighted Imaging and Apparent Diffusion Coefficient Mapping: A Bicentric Study

This study aimed to determine if diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) can differentiate between benign and malignant lymph nodes in patients with head and neck cancer. A total of 55 patients with confirmed head and neck cancer and enlarged neck nodes were enrolled and evaluated by two radiologists using...
