What is Intravoxel incoherent motion diffusion-weighted MRI of invasive breast cancer: Correlation with prognostic factors and kinetic features acquired with computer-aided diagnosis: Correlation of IVIM Marker and Kinetic Feature about?

## Background: As both intravoxel incoherent motion (ivim) modeling and dynamic contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (dce-mri) provide perfusion parameters, ivim-derived perfusion parameters might be expected to correlate with the kinetic features from dce-mri. ## Purpose: To investigate the association between ivim parameters and prognostic factors and to evaluate the correlation between ivim parameters and kinetic features in invasive breast cancer patients using computer-aided diagnosis (cad). ## Study type: Retrospective. ## Population: Eighty-five patients (invasive cancers; mean size, 1.8 cm; range, 0.8-4.8 cm) who underwent diffusion-weighted imaging with 12 b-values (0-1000 s/mm ). ## Field strength/sequence: 3.0t mri axial, ivim-dwi epi-sequence, and dce-mri. ## Assessment: Two radiologists measured the apparent diffusion coefficient (adc), diffusion coefficient, pseudodiffusion coefficient, and perfusion fraction (f) using ivim modeling. kinetic features such as peak enhancement and early and delayed enhancement profiles were acquired using cad. ## Statistical tests: The correlation between the ivim parameters and kinetic features and the association between the i
