Abstract:
Diffusion-weighted whole-body imaging with background body signal suppression(DWIBS) is a new magnetic resonance imaging technology.At present,it has not only been applied to screen and stage malignant tumors,but also to monitor therapeutic response and differentiate benign from malignant tumors.However,it still has certain disadvantages.This review described the current progresses in the potential applications of the DWIBS in malignant tumors.
