Diffusion MRI of the Breast, 1st Edition
Paperback
-
-
Offers an in-depth discussion of DWI’s clinical applications in breast imaging, including the position of DWI with respect to other modalities, the use of DWI in the diagnosis of suspicious lesions with a multiparametric protocol, the use of DWI as an imaging biomarker of prognosis and response prediction, the potential role of DWI for unenhanced breast MR screening, and more.
-
Provides a basic introduction to DWI before discussing a practical approach to clinical interpretation and quality assurance issues.
-
Covers specific challenges and advanced techniques (IVIM, non-Gaussian diffusion, DTI, and other novel techniques), radiomics and artificial intelligence, and different vendor approaches in breast DWI packages.
-
Features more than 500 high-quality images throughout.
-
Explains how DWI could be specifically used to provide information on prognosis and prediction factors.
-
Evaluates the current status of DWI, its potential for the management of breast cancer patients, and possible future developments in the field.
-
Enhanced eBook version included with purchase. Your enhanced eBook allows you to access all of the text, figures, and references from the book on a variety of devices.
