The advent of functional MR imaging has facilitated an increased role
for imaging in risk stratification and treatment planning. In this study, DTI
and DWI MR measurements were performed to investigate the correlation of the FA
and ADC values in ROIs of the intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (ICC) and
hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), and in further the sensitivity, specificity and
accuracy of the parameters for the diagnosis. DTI working at present scanning
hardware are more capable to detect the pathophysiological changes unattainable
compare to conventional MRI techniques.
