Diffusion-Weighted Magnetic Resonance Imaging Findings of Kidneys with Obstructive Uropathy: Differentiation between Benign and Malignant Etiology
Figure 2
Normal kidneys ((a), (b)) and hydronephrotic kidneys ((c), (d)). Axial apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) map calculated from echoplanar diffusion-weighted images of healthy and hydronephrotic kidneys with high b values at the central portion of normal, healthy kidneys ((a), (b)) and hydronephrotic kidneys ((c), (d)). A large circular region of interest (ROIs) was placed at the corticomedullary junction for the measurement of ADC values for normal and obstructed kidneys.
