Diffusion-weighted MRI and in-phase/opposed-phase sequences in the assessment of bone tumors.

Purpose: To evaluate the role of diffusion-weighted apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) and in-phase/opposed-phase sequences in the differentiation of benign and malignant osseous tumors.

Materials And Methods: At 1.5T, routine sequences were compared to diffusion-weighted and in-phase/opposed-phase in 63 patients.
