title: Evolving Importance of Diffusion-Weighted Magnetic Resonance Imaging in Lymphoma.
abstract: Diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging (DWI) is a rapidly evolving functional imaging modality that can now be used for the evaluation of lymphomatous lesions throughout the body. This article describes the basics of (whole-body) DWI, and reviews and discusses the evolving importance of whole-body DWI for the staging and therapy response assessment of lymphoma.
