From: Diffusion-weighted MRI for predicting pathologic response to neoadjuvant chemotherapy in breast cancer: evaluation with mono-, bi-, and stretched-exponential models

Fig. 3

Images obtained in a 56-year-old woman with invasive ductal carcinoma (estrogen receptor-/progesterone receptor-/human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 + /Ki-67 > 20%) who was categorized in the pathologic complete response group. Shown from left to right are contrast-enhanced MRI images, diffusion-weighted (DW) MRI images (b = 1500 s/mm2), and color-coded quantitative DW MRI maps (overlaid on original DW images). Serial diffusion-related measures increased progressively with treatment. For example, ADC200,1000 values were 0.68, 0.97 and 1.08 × 10–3 mm2/s, respectively, at pre-, mid-, and post-treatment
