Background To compare stretched‐exponential and monoexponential model diffusion‐weighted imaging (DWI) in prostate cancer normal tissues. Methods Twenty‐seven patients with underwent DWI exam using b‐values of 0, 500, 1000, 2000 s/mm 2 . The distributed diffusion coefficients (DDC) α values tissues were obtained apparent coefficient (ADC) model. ADC, DDC (both 10 −3 mm /s), (range, 0–1) compared among different ADC also correlated each tissue, the standardized differences between Results...

Abstract Early therapeutic effects of anti-angiogenic agent ZD6474 upon nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) in nude mouse were monitored by using intravoxel incoherent motion (IVIM) diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI). Mice bearing NPC underwent IVIM DWI at baseline and after 1, 3 7 days treatment with or vehicle (n = 12 per group). Parameters apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC), true (D), perfusion fraction (f) blood pseudodiffusion (D*) different time points compared between the two groups within...

Summary Objective The pathogenesis of benign adult familial myoclonic epilepsy ( BAFME ) remains unknown, although cerebellar pathologic changes and brain hyperexcitability have been reported. We used resting‐state functional magnetic resonance imaging fMRI to examine the connectivity between cerebellum cerebrum in a Chinese family with for first time. Methods Eleven adults 15 matched healthy controls underwent blood oxygen level–dependent BOLD scanning. seeds, including bilateral crus I,...

Sparse estimation techniques are widely utilized in diffusion magnetic resonance imaging (DMRI). In this paper, we present an algorithm for solving the ℓ0 sparse-group problem and apply it to tissue signal separation DMRI. Our solves directly, unlike existing approaches that often seek solve its relaxed approximations. We include mathematical proofs showing will converge a solution satisfying firstorder optimality condition within finite number of iterations. DMRI data tease apart...
