Figure 6 Corresponding volumetric histograms of intestinal-type periampullary adenocarcinoma and pancreatobiliary-type periampullary adenocarcinoma.
A: Corresponding volumetric histogram (b800) shows the overlap distribution of ADC values of IPAC and PPAC. For the PPAC, the mean, 50th percentile, 75th percentile, and ADCmax were 1.35, 1.38, 1.55, and 2.14 × 10−3 mm2/s, respectively. For the IPAC, the mean, 50th percentile, 75th percentile, and ADCmax were 1.52, 1.53, 1.63, and 2.26 × 10−3 mm2/s, respectively; B: Corresponding volumetric histogram (b1000) shows a higher ADC distribution range in the IPAC. For the PPAC, the mean, 50th percentile, 75th percentile, and ADCmax were 0.96, 0.98, 1.14, and 1.80 ×10−3 mm2/s, respectively. For the IPAC, the mean, 50th percentile, 75th percentile, and ADCmax were 1.49, 1.47, 1.58, and 2.10 ×10−3 mm2/s, respectively. IPAC: Intestinal-type periampullary adenocarcinoma; PPAC: Pancreatobiliary-type periampullary adenocarcinoma; ADC: Apparent diffusion coefficient.
