Preoperative Assessment and Prediction of Consistency of Intracranial Meningioma Utilizing the Apparent Diffusion Coefficient Values

Abstract

Objectives Consistency of meningioma is important for preoperative planning, surgical resection, and predicting surgical outcomes. We prospectively evaluated the utility of the apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) values to assess the consistency of meningioma.
