Intravoxel incoherent motion (IVIM) DWI has recently shown potential to assess functional changes of renal fibrosis. From the findings through multi-b DW-MRI measurements on cisplatin induced rodent renal fibrosis models, the temporal variation of ADC values behaved as a weight of the true diffusion and pseudo-diffusion. The biomarkers resulted from mono-exponential model exhibited a dual phase temporal variation, while those from bi-exponential model remained a single tendency of variation. According to the histopathological observation that the worsening of renal fibrosis with time, the bi-exponential model might be a better choice for an accurate indication of the evolution of renal fibrosis.
