Can diffusion-weighted MRI determine complete responders after neoadjuvant chemoradiation for locally advanced rectal cancer?

We aimed to prospectively determine if analyzing pre- and post-chemoradiotheraphy (CRT) changes in the signal intensity (SI) and apperent diffusion coefficient (ADC) values from diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging (DW-MRI) can accurately predict complete responders for locally advanced rec...
