The use of multiparametric whole body imaging is rapidly
gaining favor in conducting non-ionizing interrogation
of the whole body in a short period of time. The use of
functional parameters are needed to better define tissue
characteristics, in particular, with the use of DWI. We
have tested and demonstrated improved DWI with ADC
mapping using advanced pulse sequences incorporating
mono- and bipolar gradients schemes during continuous
table movement WB-MRI in a group of subjects.
