intravoxel incoherent motion (ivim)

What Are the Key IVIM Parameters?

The primary parameters derived from IVIM imaging include:
1. Diffusion Coefficient (D): Reflects the true molecular diffusion within tissue, which is typically lower in highly cellular tumors due to restricted water movement.
2. Pseudo-Diffusion Coefficient (D*): Represents the incoherent motion of blood in the microvasculature, providing information about tissue perfusion.
3. Perfusion Fraction (f): Indicates the proportion of the signal attributed to blood flow within the voxel, offering insights into the vascular density and perfusion status of the tumor.
