Usefulness of apparent diffusion coefficient values and magnetic resonance imaging histogram analysis for identifying histological types of preoperative testicular tumors
The present results demonstrate the efficacy of magnetic resonance imaging with apparent diffusion coefficient values and histograms in the differentiation of testicular tumor subtypes. A pre-operative diagnosis of testicular tumor subtypes may enable more effective management of testicular tumors, including pre-operative counseling and early treatment planning.
