Apparent Diffusion Coefficient |
Values are derived by calculation of the apparent diffusion coefficient. This concept may be used for the diffusion coefficient of various different models, e.g., mono-exponential (ADCm), kurtosis (ADCk), stretched-exponential (ADCs).The "apparent" appellation is because the diffusion images from which the ADC is computed may also be affected by T2 contrast (T2 "shine-through"), so this concept is distinguished from a "pure" diffusion coefficient that is not so affected. |
