Investigation of the optimal b-value to detect breast tumors with diffusion weighted imaging by 1.5-T MRI

BACKGROUND: Previous studies have reported that the signal attenuation of diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging (DWI) for normal breast tissue and tumor were well fitted by a monoexponential and a biexponential function, respectively. The aim of this study was to investigate the optimal b-va...
