Diffusion-weighted MRI with ADC mapping for response prediction and assessment of oesophageal cancer: A systematic review.

CONCLUSION: DW-MRI for response evaluation to chemo- and/or radiotherapy in oesophageal cancer shows variable methods and results. A large relative ADC increase after two weeks of treatment seems most predictive for good response. PMID: 31431376 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
