Diffusion-weighted imaging in identifying breast cancer pathological response to neoadjuvant chemotherapy: A meta-analysis.

Conclusions: DWI may be an accurate and nonradioactive imaging technique for identifying pCRs to NAC in breast cancer. Nonetheless, there are a variety of issues when assessing DWI techniques for estimating breast cancer responses to NAC, and large scale and well-designed clinical trials are needed to assess the technique's diagnostic value.
