Wangyi Liu & Ruifang Yan et al. · 2025-12-29

This study aimed to evaluate the performance of continuous-time random walk (CTRW), diffusion kurtosis imaging (DKI), and diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) in predicting the proliferative state of endometrial cancer (EC). A cohort of 81 EC patients was recruited. The parameters obtained from CTRW (α, β, and D K The combination of CTRW-derived parameter α, DKI-derived parameter K
