Article/Chapter Title: | Diffusion-weighted imaging |
Abstract: | This review describes diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging (DW-MRI) techniques and applications in prostate cancer imaging. First, we review methodologies for the acquisition of DW-MRI data and discuss their strengths and limitations. Second, we present models and methods for the analysis of DW-MRI data of the prostate. Finally, we present an overview of the challenges of DW-MRI in the management of prostate cancer and future directions. © Springer Nature Switzerland AG 2020. |
