<b>Effect of Hydrophilic Components of the Extracellular Matrix on Quantifiable Diffusion-Weighted Imaging of Human Gliomas:</b> Preliminary Results of Correlating Apparent Diffusion Coefficient Values and Hyaluronan Expression Level

Abstract

Hyaluronan as one of the main hydrophilic components of the extracellular matrix in gliomas likely contributes to differences in the ADC values between high- and low-grade glial tumors.
