Is there any relationship between adc values of diffusion weighted imaging and the histopathologic prognostic factors of invasive ductal carcinoma?

CONCLUSION: The literature contains studies that report conflicting results which may be caused by differences in B values, ROI area and magnetic field strength. Multi-center studies and systematic reviews of these findings may produce crucial data for the use of DW imaging in breast cancer. Advances in knowledge: To determine if any significant relationship exists between DWI findings and prognostic factors of breast cancer.
