Soft tissue sarcomas: IVIM and DKI correlate with the expression of HIF-1 α on direct comparison of MRI and pathological slices

ConclusionsThis preliminary study demonstrated the association of IVIM and DKI parameters with the expression of HIF-1 α in STS.Key Points• IVIM and DKI parameters are correlated with the expression of HIF-1α in STS.• The MRI-pathology control method can be used in clinical studies to ensure correspondence between MRI slices and pathology sections.
