Diffusion kurtosis imaging (DKI) can quantify the diffusion state of non-Gaussian water molecules in tissues, thus correcting the offset of the diffusion-weighted imaging(DWI) model and improving the detection of lesions compared with DWI.At present, there is only a few comparative studies of DWI and DKI in endometrial cancer(EC).Our results show that compared with DWI, the DKI model is a more complete mathematical model with more sensitive parameters, which can more effectively evaluate the pathological and physiological characteristics of EC.
