Differentiation of Low- and High-Grade Pediatric Brain Tumors with High<i>b</i>-Value Diffusion-weighted MR Imaging and a Fractional Order Calculus Model

Abstract

The FROC parameters can be used to differentiate between low- and high-grade pediatric brain tumor groups. The combination of FROC parameters or individual parameters may serve as in vivo, noninvasive, and quantitative imaging markers for classifying pediatric brain tumors.
