Evaluation of ADC on liver MRI diffusion to discriminate benign versus malignant solid liver lesions.

Purpose: The aim of this project is to investigate the usefulness of the absolute liver lesion ADC value and ratio of Apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) values of a liver lesion and liver parenchyma to discriminate between a benign and malignant lesion.

Methods: Liver MRI scans performed between January 2009 and June 2015 were retrospectively analysed. Scans were performed on either a 1.
