Apparent Diffusion Coefficient When increased signal intensity is noted on diffusion weighted imaging, ado map should be obtained to exclude the possibility of T2 shine through o ADC maps are independent of T1 and T2 effects, decreased adc value indicate decreased diffusion
Apparent Diffusion Coefficient • When increased signal intensity is noted on diffusion weighted imaging, ADC map should be obtained to exclude the possibility of T2 shine through • ADC maps are independent of T1 and T2 effects ; decreased ADC value indicate decreased diffusion
