dc.description.abstractPurpose To assess the value of diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging (DW-MRI) and contrast-enhanced MRI (CE-MRI) for differentiation between benign and malignant solid renal masses, renal cell carcinoma (RCC) subtypes, oncocytomas, and lipid-poor angiomyolipomas (LP-AML). Methods Minimum or lowest -apparent diffusion coefficient- (ADC(1)) and representative ADC values (ADC(2)) of 112 renal masses (n: 46 benign renal mass,n: 66 malignant renal mass) were measured on DW-MRI images (b50, 400, 800 s/mm(2)). Signal intensity (SI) measurements were performed in normal renal parenchyma and most avid enhanced area of the renal masses at precontrast, corticomedullary, and nephrographic phases on CE-MRI. Contrast enhancement rate (CER) and contrast enhancement index (CEI) values of renal masses were compared between benign-malignant renal masses and RCC subtypes, oncocytomas, and LP-AMLs. Results There was no significant difference between ADC(1), ADC(2)values, and SI of benign and malignant renal masses (p = 0.721,p = 0.255,p = 0.872). Mean ADC(1)and ADC(2)values of clear cell RCCs were significantly higher than nonclear cell RCCs (p = 0.005p = 0.002). Mean CER value of clear cell RCCs was significantly higher than nonclear cell RCCs in nephrographic phase (p = 0.003). Mean CEI values of clear cell RCCs were significantly higher than nonclear cell RCCs in the corticomedullary and nephrographic phase (p = 0.027 vs. 0.008). LP-AMLs were differentiated from other renal masses with wash-out phenomenon. Conclusion Combined usage of ADC, SI, CER, and CEI values may be useful for discrimination between RCC subtypes, oncocytomas, and lipid-poor AMLs.
