Diffusion-Weighted MRI of Breast Cancer: Improved Lesion Visibility and Image Quality Using Synthetic b-Values.
Diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) is an MRI technique with the potential to serve as an unenhanced breast cancer detection tool. Synthetic b-values produce images with high diffusion weighting to suppress residual background signal, while avoiding additional measurement times and reducing artifacts. ⋯ 3 Technical Efficacy: Stage 2 J. Magn. Reson. Imaging 2019;50:1754-1761.

MRI-Based Radiomics Signature for the Preoperative Prediction of Extracapsular Extension of Prostate Cancer.
Radiomics approaches based on multiparametric MRI (mp-MRI) have shown high accuracy in prostate cancer (PCa) management. However, there is a need to apply radiomics to the preoperative prediction of extracapsular extension (ECE). ⋯ 4 Technical Efficacy Stage: 2 J. Magn. Reson. Imaging 2019;50:1914-1925.

Observational StudyProton density fat fraction MRI of vertebral bone marrow: Accuracy, repeatability, and reproducibility among readers, field strengths, and imaging platforms.
Chemical shift-encoding based water-fat MRI is an emerging method to noninvasively assess proton density fat fraction (PDFF), a promising quantitative imaging biomarker for estimating tissue fat concentration. However, in vivo validation of PDFF is still lacking for bone marrow applications. ⋯ 3 Technical Efficacy: Stage 2 J. Magn. Reson. Imaging 2019;50:1762-1772.
