From: Feasibility study of using simultaneous multi-slice RESOLVE diffusion weighted imaging to assess parotid gland tumors: comparison with conventional RESOLVE diffusion weighted imaging

Fig. 3

Example of SMS-RESOLVE DWI, RESOLVE DWI, and corresponding ADC maps of a 57-year-old patient with bilateral warthin tumors in parotid glands. The tumor showed slight hyperintensity on T1-weighted image (a), hyperintensity on T2-weighted image (b), and hyperintensity on axial DWI (c, SMS-RESOLVE DWI; d, RESOLVE DWI). Image quality scores were similar for SMS-RESOLVE DWI and RESOLVE DWI. The ADC value of the tumor derived from SMS-RESOLVE DWI (e) and RESOLVE DWI (f) were 0.61 × 10− 3 mm2/s and 0.62× 10− 3 mm2/s, respectively
