Quantitative analysis of Intravoxel incoherent motion (IVIM) effect of diffusion weighted imaging can assess both diffusion and perfusion component of tissue separately. To the best of our knowledge, IVIM analysis in primary bone tumors has not been reported yet and no reference for IVIM parameter values in bone tumors is available for simulation study. We estimated quantitative IVIM parameters using state-of-the-art IVIM analysis method – Bi-exponential model with adaptive Total Variation penalty function (BE+TV) in a cohort of twenty patients with Osteosarcoma that is useful for IVIM analysis in bone tumors for prognosis and can serve as standard reference for future studies.
