Whole‐body diffusion‐weighted magnetic resonance imaging: Diagnosis and follow up of prostate cancer and beyond

The diffusion‐weighted imaging signal is derived from the motion of water molecules. It represents the physiological characteristics of tissue and is an essential imaging sequence for prostate cancer. Whole‐body diffusion‐weighted imaging facilitates the assessment of pathological conditions throughout the body. The concept of diffusion‐weighted whole‐body imaging with background body signal suppression and technological advances has led to...
