Fig. 2From: Intravoxel incoherent motion diffusion-weighted imaging in differentiating uterine fibroid from focal adenomyosis: initial resultsA 25-year-old patient with histologically proven focal adenomyosis. a Axial FS T2WI reveals a oval mass with main hypointensity signal occupying the myometrium and the junctional zone (arrowhead); b D map shows the mass is homogeneously isointensity signal with the D value of 0.515 ± 0.358 × 10−3 mm2/s; c D* map displays the D* value is 18.8 ± 19.9 × 10−3 mm2/s; d the f map is 0.114 ± 0.101. (In this case, the signal decay curve generated by IVIM-DWI is shown in Fig. 4)Back to article page
