Slide 87: In authors experience, the signal intensity of nonnecrotic components of metastases on DW images is variable (generally iso - or hypointense, occasionally hyperintense).
-
Slide 195: In author's experience, the signal intensity of multiple sclerosis (MS) on DW images is variable (hyper -, iso -, or hypointense) Gass et al reported that enhancing lesions were restricted relative to white matter on DW images, while chronic lesions were not.

Slide 75: Metastases Typical Presentation on DW Images and ADC Maps The reported cases of metastases were isointense to slightly hyperintense on DW images, and the calculated ADC values were in the range 0. 82-1.24 x 10-3 mm2 / sec In authors experience, the signal intensity of non necrotic components of metastases on DW images is variable (generally iso - or hypointense; occasionally hyperintense).

In the same study, four malignant meningiomas had markedly increased signal on DW images, hypointense signal on ADC maps, and low ADC values indicative of marked restriction to water diffusion.
-
Thirteen benign meningiomas (WHO grade I) were hyper -, iso -, or hypointense on the DW images and on the corresponding ADC maps and had increased ADC values, with the exception of one case of a densely calcified meningioma
