Evaluation parameters between intra-voxel incoherent motion and diffusion-weighted imaging in grading and differentiating histological subtypes of meningioma: A prospective pilot study

摘要

Purpose: To prospectively evaluate the usage of intra-voxel incoherent motion (IVIM) magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) parameters in grading and differentiating histological subtypes of meningiomas and in comparing their ability with the traditional diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) parameter (apparent diffusion coefficient, ADC).
