Diffusion-kurtosis magnetic resonance imaging of the brain in the differential diagnostics of metastases of tumors of various primary localization [PDF]
Клиническая практикаBackground: Metastatic brain lesions lead to the most unfavorable prognosis for the course of an oncological disease. Most often, brain metastases arise from primary tumors such as lung cancer, breast cancer, and melanoma.
