Role of apparent diffusion coefficient values and diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging in differentiation between benign and malignant thyroid nodules
Abstract Objective The purpose of the study was to differentiate between benign and malignant thyroid nodules using nodule-spinal cord signal intensity and nodule apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) ratios on diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging (DW-MRI).

description | Abstract Objective The purpose of the study was to differentiate between benign and malignant thyroid nodules using nodule-spinal cord signal intensity and nodule apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) ratios on diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging (DW-MRI). Materials and Methods Forty-four patients (27 females, 17 males; mean age, 49 years) with nodules who underwent DW-MRI were included in this study. The images were acquired with 0, 50, 400 and 1000 s/mm2 b values. ADC maps were calculated afterwards. Fine needle aspiration biopsies (FNAB) were performed at the same day with DW-MRI acquisition. The diagnosis in patients where malignity was detected after FNAB was confirmed by histopathologic analysis of the operation material. The signal intensities of the spinal cord and the nodule were measured additionally, over b-1000 diffusion-weighted images. Nodule/cord signal intensity (SI) ratios were obtained and the digital values were calculated by dividing to ADC values estimated for each nodule. Statistical analysis was performed. Results The (nodule SI-cord SI)/nodule ADC ratio is calculated in the DW images, and a statistically significant relationship was found between this ratio and the histopathology of the nodules ( P |
