The b-value (in µs/µm2) sets were used for the monoexponential model except the last row which used IVIM model;
ADCIVIM represents the IVIM model ADC;
Two-tailed paired t-test with ADCIVIM mean values of the active tumour volumes of the scans;
CV, coefficient of variation;
Not significantly different intra-scan CV of ADC values of the active tumour volumes compared to that of IVIM (two-tailed paired t-test).
