Boxplot of Quantitative Assessment of primary rectal cancer in iShim-DWI. a: Signal intensity (SI) showed significantly high in primary rectal cancer compared with residual rectal wall in iShim-DWI. b: ADC values shoed significantly low in primary rectal cancer compared with residual rectal wall in iShim-DWI. c: ADC values comparison showed significant difference between two pathological groups (Group 1: well differentiated cancer and Group 2: moderate to lower differentiated cancer). d: ROC analysis between two pathological groups showed statistical significance in SIlesion of b = 800 s/mm2 (AUC = 0.692, P = 0.046), SIlesion of b = 1600 s/mm2 (AUC = 0.756, P = 0.008) and ADC (AUC = 0.742, P = 0.012) maps, respectively
