Synopsis

Keywords: Kidney, CEST & MT, amide proton transfer,RCCThis study aims to assess the feasibility of amide proton transfer-weighted (APTw) imaging in depicting renal lesions and its ability to differentiate malignant from benign tumors. The results show that APTw can be used to discriminate renal tumors from normal kidney tissues, as well as to identify benign and malignant renal tumors. However, the technique still needs to be improved to reduce artifacts.
