Table 5:
Comparison of mean ADC values between b = 1000 s/mm2 (ADC1) and b = 3000 s/mm2 (ADC3) in high-grade and low-grade gliomas and normal subcortical white matter
| ADC1(μm2/s) | ADC3(μm2/s) | |
|---|---|---|
| High-grade glioma (n = 49) | 914.6 ± 278.9 | 597.6 ± 195.9 |
| WHO grade III (n = 20) | 970.8 ± 333.6 | 627.3 ± 248.2 |
| WHO grade IV (n = 29) | 875.9 ± 232.4 | 577.2 ± 151.3 |
| Low-grade (II) glioma (n = 13) | 1379.2 ± 428.2 | 910.8 ± 227.1 |
| Normal subcortical WM (n = 62) | 779.1 ± 70.7 | 625.0 ± 68.9 |
Note:—WM indicates white matter; ADC, apparent diffusion coefficient.
