Background: Diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging (DW-MRI) with apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) measurement provides additional information about tumor microstructure with potential relevance for staging and predicting aggressive disease in patients with endometrial cancer (EC).
Purpose: To determine whether ADC values in EC diverge according to the tumor's histologic grade and myometrial invasion depth.
Material And Methods: A sample of 48 pathologically confirmed cases of EC were reviewed retrospectively.
