Abstract

Diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging is based on the Brownian motion of water and enables quantification of the apparent diffusion coefficient throughout the body. This article discusses the principles of diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging, as well as the possible applications and limitations as they apply to liver imaging. This will introduce the readers to this novel magnetic resonance imaging tool, which has a promising future.
