Abstract:
Objective To evaluate the application of diffusion-weighted MR imaging in hepatic echinococcosis.Methods Diffusion-weighted MR imaging and measurement of apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC)were performed in 23 patients with 30 hepatic echinococcosis(cystic echinococcosis 24, alveolaris echinococcosis 6).Results The mean ADC values of cystic echinococcosis, alveolaris echinococcosis and normal liver were (3.50?0.35)?10 -3 mm2/s,(2.22?0.22)?10 -3 mm2/s and (1.41?0.09)?10 -3 mm2/s respectively.The difference between the mean ADC values was significant(?
