  1. Note: Plus-minus values are means ± SD. a The data were expressed as median (quantile range, QR), and intergroup comparison was analyzed with Mann-Whitney U text. ADC: apparent diffusion coefficient; FS-T2WI fat-suppressed T2-weighted imaging; DWI diffusion weighted imaging; DCE-T1WI2min and DCE-T1WI7min 2- and 7-min postcontrast T1W images on DCE-MRI; ASM angular second moment; IDM inverse difference moment
