Synopsis

It is essential to accurately preoperatively predict genotypes and prognostic factors for patients with breast cancer in clinic treatment. Combined diffusion weighted imaging (DWI), Intravoxel incoherent motion (IVIM) and diffusion kurtosis imaging (DKI) were developed to comprehensively assess tumors at the cellular and molecular levels. In this study we aimed to explore whether the combination of these three diffusion techniques can help to comprehensively evaluate breast cancer.
