Liver regeneration has been studied for many decades and the mechanisms underlying
regeneration of the normal liver following resection or moderate damage are well described …

A comprehensive literature review was performed on liver intravoxel incoherent motion
(IVIM) magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) technique and its applications. Heterogeneous …

Diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) is sensitive to the mobility of water molecule at cellular
and macromolecular level, much smaller than the spatial resolution of the images. It is …

Objectives To determine whether bi‐or tri‐exponential models, and full or segmented fittings,
better fit the intravoxel incoherent motion (IVIM) imaging signal of healthy livers. Methods …

The aim of this study was to establish reference values for middle‐aged subjects and to
investigate the age and gender dependence of liver diffusion MRI parameters. The IVIM type …

Objectives The aim of this study was to determine the combination of b-values and signal
averages for diffusion-weighted image acquisitions that render the minimum acquisition time …

Liver vessel density can be evaluated by an imaging biomarker diffusion-derived vessel
density (DDVD): DDVD/area (b0b2)= Sb0/ROIarea0–Sb2/ROIarea2, where Sb0 and Sb2 …

Purpose To evaluate reproducibility and interlobar agreement of intravoxel incoherent
motion (IVIM) quantification in the liver across field strengths and MR scanners with different …

Background Recent two studies reported that intravoxel incoherent motion (IVIM) analysis
can separate healthy livers and viral hepatitis B (VHB) induced liver fibrosis. However, in …

Introduction: New advances in liver magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) may enable
diagnosis of unseen pathologies by conventional techniques. Normal T1 (550–620 ms for …
