The Apparent Diffusion Coefficient (ADC) of (A) the diffusion mimics measured on clinical 1.5 T and 3.0 T systems at bore temperature span the range of in vivo values for malignant tumor to healthy tissue (B), as measured in the literature (9, 11): 1. Healthy tissue; 2. Benign mass; 3. Benign lesion; 4. Malignant lesion; and 5. Malignant mass. (A) The measured 25–75 percentile ranges are: 0 % PVP: 2140 to 2612 × 10−6 mm2/s; 10 % PVP: 1689 to 1802 × 10−6 mm2/s; 14 % PVP: 1516 to 1593 × 10−6 mm2/s; 18 % PVP: 1358 to 1400 × 10−6 mm2/s; 25 % PVP: 937 to 1028 × 10−6 mm2/s; 40 % PVP: 606 to 695 × 10−6 mm2/s.
