This study measured the quantitative imaging metrics of the pancreas using DWI, IVIM, and 3D mdixon-quant sequences in healthy subjects and correlated these quantitative metrics with age, gender and BMI. This study showed that there were noticeable differences in sADC, f between genders (p<0.05). It shows that pancreatic cells of male are closely arranged, cell gap is reduced, and water diffusion is limited and pancreatic perfusion reduce,which may be because pancreatic fat content of male overweigh that of female(5.16% vs.3.68%).
