ADC Values in Tumor and Healthy Tissue

Case	Tumor ADC	Healthy Tissue ADC	Contrast (%)
CONV	1.022±.185	1.620±.231	35.9±13.2*
rFOV	0.952±.180	1.731±.230	44.0±13.3*

Conventional sequence (CONV) and reduced-Field-Of-View sequence (rFOV) apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) values [×10⁻³mm²/s] and contrast [%] for untreated patients with identified tumor (n=17). ADC values show no statistical difference between healthy tissue in tested sequences (p=0.978) and a trend towards lower ADC values in tumor regions using rFOV (p<0.0854).

^*Magnitude of tumor contrast is significantly higher in the rFOV sequence than in the CONV sequence (p<0.0012).
