Research topics from publications: Intravoxel Incoherent Motion and Dynamic Contrast-Enhanced Magnetic Resonance Imaging Can Differentiate Between Atypical Cartilaginous Tumors and High-Grade Chondrosarcoma: Correlation With Histological Vessel Characteristics. Representative work: OBJECTIVE: To differentiate between atypical cartilaginous tumors and high-grade chondrosarcoma of the major long bones using intravoxel incoherent motion (IVIM) and Dynamic Contrast-Enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (DCE-MRI), and explore the correlation of quantitative parameters with hypoxia inducible factor-1α (HIF-1α), vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and microvessel density (MVD). METHOD: Between September 2016 and March 2022, 35 patients (17 atypical cartilaginous tumors, 18 high-grade chondrosarcoma) underwent MRI examination and pathological confirmation at our hospital. First, IVIM-derived parameters ( D , D* , and f ), and DCE-MRI parameters ( Ktrans , Kep , and V e ) w
