Popis: | Intravoxel incoherent motion MRI (IVIM-MRI) can quantify micro-perfusion at the capillary level in the tissue. The purpose of this study is to measure tumor perfusion using IVIM-MRI, and evaluate its value as a biomarker to predict prognosis in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) patients. 109 ESCC patients (93 men and 16 women; median age: 72) who underwent IVIM-MRI prior to treatment between February 2018 and August 2020 were retrospectively investigated. Both mean apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) value and mean perfusion-related parameter (PP) value of the primary tumor were measured using three b values of 0, 400, and 1000 s/mm2 based on the IVIM model. We analyzed associations of these parameters with clinical stage and disease-specific survival (DSS). Lower ADC and PP values of the tumor were significantly associated with the higher clinical T stage (p |
