Figure 2 Histogram analysis of diffusion-weighted imaging.
Histogram analysis is one of the texture analyses. This is the histogram analysis of apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) map. Region of interest (ROI) for the tumor is drawn on ADC map, and distribution of pixels in the ROI is quantified as histogram parameters such as kurtosis and skewness. ADC: Apparent diffusion coefficient; ROI: Region of interest.
