Histogram Analysis of Diffusion-Weighted Magnetic Resonance Imaging as a Biomarker to Predict Lymph Node Metastasis in T3 Stage Rectal Carcinoma

Abstract

With the mean >1.08×10^-3 s/mm² and CV <0.249, the ADC improved the diagnostic performance of LNM in T3 stage rectal cancer, which could assist surgeons with neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy.
