Two examples of MRI images from CRLM patients, including the T2WI and DWI before and after treatment. a-d A short diameter of HLN shrinkage from 16 mm (a) to 11 mm (c). The ADC value calculated from the DWI sequence (b, d) slightly increased from 1140 to 1230 mm2/s. The lymph node was pathologically confirmed to be a metastatic lymph node. e-h A short diameter of HLN shrinkage from 15 mm (e) to 12 mm (g) after treatment. The ADC value calculated from the DWI sequence (f, h) increased from 1330 to 1650 mm2/s. The lymph node was pathologically confirmed to be a non-metastatic lymph node
