WHOLE BODY DIFFUSION WEIGHTED IMAGING:A NEW ERA OF ONCOLOGICAL RADIOLOGY
摘要
Cancer has become the leading cause of mortality in the urban area of China. Whole body diffusion weighted imaging (WB-DWI)
also known as virtual positron emission tomography
has gradually become accepted as an image tool in tumor localization
characterization
staging and monitoring response to therapy or tumor recurrence. Our article aimed to summarize the limited initial clinical use of WB-DWI in the referred area
and to analyze the most potential advantage of WB-DWI in therapeutic monitoring and tumor staging. WB-DWI as a highly sensitive
completely non-invasive
well-tolerated and low price technique has a promising furture in tumor assessment. Profound clinical study is necessary for its further application improvement.
