Synopsis

Intravoxel incoherent motion (IVIM) and diffusion kurtosis imaging (DKI) can fully reflect the information of water molecular diffusion, microcirculation perfusion, and tissue heterogeneity. Amide proton transfer-weighted imaging (APTWI) has unique advantages in displaying mobile proteins and polypeptides. Our results showed that IVIM, DKI, and APTWI can estimate the risk stratification of early-stage (FIGO ≤ I) endometrial carcinoma (EC), and the combination of D, MK, and MTRasym (3.5 ppm) may be an effective imaging marker for identifying low-risk and non-low-risk early-stage EC.
