Comparison of the Diagnostic Value of Mono-exponential, Bi-exponential, and Stretched Exponential Signal Models in Diffusion-weighted MR Imaging for Differentiating Benign and Malignant Hepatic Lesions.
CONCLUSION: DDC values obtained from the stretched exponential model could be also used as a quantitative imaging biomarker for differentiating benign and malignant hepatic lesions, however, the diagnostic performance was comparable with ADC values.
