Intravoxel Incoherent Motion MR Imaging for Staging of Hepatic Fibrosis. [PDF]
To determine the potential of intravoxel incoherent motion (IVIM) MR imaging for staging of hepatic fibrosis (HF).We searched PubMed and EMBASE from their inception to 31 July 2015 to select studies reporting IVIM MR imaging and HF staging. We defined F1-

Intravoxel Incoherent Motion Metrics as Potential Biomarkers for Survival in Glioblastoma. [PDF]
Intravoxel incoherent motion (IVIM) is an MRI technique with potential applications in measuring brain tumor perfusion, but its clinical impact remains to be determined. We assessed the usefulness of IVIM-metrics in predicting survival in newly diagnosed

Bayesian intravoxel incoherent motion parameter mapping in the human heart [PDF]
Background Intravoxel incoherent motion (IVIM) imaging of diffusion and perfusion in the heart suffers from high parameter estimation error. The purpose of this work is to improve cardiac IVIM parameter mapping using Bayesian inference.

Effect of intravoxel incoherent motion on diffusion parameters in normal brain
At very low diffusion weighting the diffusion MRI signal is affected by intravoxel incoherent motion (IVIM) caused by dephasing of magnetization due to incoherent blood flow in capillaries or other sources of microcirculation.
