MR images of patients. Subject A (female, 76-year-old, TNM-stage II, EMVI- and MRF-) had no progression during follow-up. According to the cutoff values of ADC (> 1.140 × 10− 3 mm2/s) and ADCuh (> 0.716 × 10− 3 mm2/s), wrong prediction about progression for subject A will be made based on ADC value, while right prediction will be given based on ADCuh value. Subject B (male, 57-year-old, TNM-stage III, EMVI+, MRF+) had multiple organ distant metastases and died during follow-up. Wrong prediction for subject B will be made based on ADC value, in contrast, accurate prediction will be given based on ADCuh value
