Early changes in apparent diffusion coefficients predict radiosensitivity of human nasopharyngeal carcinoma xenografts.

Abstract

This study found that changes in ADC values correlated with volume changes after irradiation. Therefore, ADC values have the potential to predict the radiosensitivity of nasopharyngeal carcinoma xenografts.
