In this study, magnetization transfer (MT) and diffusion-weighted imaging(DWI) techniques were used to differentiate the solid pulmonary masses. It was found that magnetization transfer can be used to distinguish benign and malignant pulmonary masses. Combining magnetization transfer and diffusion-weighted imaging, the accuracy of differentiation can be further improved.
