Purpose The pseudo‐diffusion coefficient D* in intravoxel incoherent motion (IVIM) imaging
was found difficult to seize. Flow‐compensated diffusion gradients were used to test the …

Purpose To study the impact of variable flow‐encoding strength on intravoxel incoherent
motion (IVIM) liver imaging of diffusion and perfusion. Theory Signal attenuation in DWI …

Background Studies on intravoxel incoherent motion (IVIM) imaging are carried out with
different acquisition protocols. Purpose To investigate the dependence of IVIM parameters …

The intravoxel incoherent motion (IVIM) theory provides a framework for the separation of
perfusion and diffusion effects in diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI). To measure the three …

Purpose To determine whether a mono-, bi-or tri-exponential model best fits the intravoxel
incoherent motion (IVIM) diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) signal of normal livers. Materials …

To investigate the vascular contribution to the measured apparent diffusion coefficient and to
validate the Intra Voxel Incoherent Motion theory, the signal as a function of the b‐value was …

Diffusion weighted imaging (DWI) and intravoxel incoherent motion (IVIM) have been
explored to assess liver tumors and diffused liver diseases. IVIM reflects the microscopic …

Purpose To characterize the diffusion coefficient of human blood for accurate results in
intravoxel incoherent motion imaging. Methods Diffusion‐weighted MRI of blood samples …

Purpose To evaluate the influence of fitting methods on the accuracy and reliability of
intravoxel incoherent motion (IVIM) parameters, with a particular emphasis on the constraint …

OBJECTIVE. Diffusion-weighted MRI is increasingly applied in the body. It has been
recognized for some time, on the basis of scientific experiments and studies in the brain, that …
