Whole-body diffusion-weighted imaging (WB-DWI) is now increasingly utilized for evaluation of the patient’s response to treatment. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the feasibility of WB-DWI with integrated slice-by-slice shimming (iShim) in patients with lung cancer.We found the SCLC is more sensitive to the chemotherapy than NSCLC using WB DWI.
