How is IVIM Applied in Different Cancer Types?

IVIM has been explored in various types of cancer, including:
1. Breast Cancer: IVIM can differentiate between malignant and benign breast lesions and may help in predicting response to neoadjuvant chemotherapy.
2. Prostate Cancer: IVIM parameters correlate with tumor grade and can improve the accuracy of prostate cancer localization and staging.
3. Liver Cancer: It aids in distinguishing between hepatocellular carcinoma and benign liver lesions, providing valuable information for treatment planning.
4. Brain Tumors: IVIM helps in characterizing tumor types and assessing treatment response, particularly in gliomas.
