[Abstract] The concept of intravoxel incoherent motion (IVIM) imaging has demonstrated that the diffusion-weighted signal can be influenced not only by molecular diffusion but also by microcirculation. It allows a more comprehensive analysis of datas of diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI). In recent years, IVIM has been used in clinical research. It will play an important role in the diagnosis of diseases in various organs and systems.
