Performance of simultaneous multislice diffusion-weighted imaging using monoexponential, intravoxel incoherent motion, and diffusion kurtosis models: assessment of microvascular invasion and histologic grade in hepatocellular carcinoma
SMS acquisition, integrated with IVIM and DKI, is a feasible imaging method for preoperative evaluation of MVI and histologic grade in HCC, offering a faster alternative to conventional methods without compromising diagnostic performance.
