Assessment of renal function using intravoxel incoherent motion diffusion‐weighted imaging and dynamic contrast‐enhanced MRI

To assess the correlation between each of intravoxel incoherent motion diffusion‐weighted imaging (IVIM‐DWI) and dynamic contrast‐enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (DCE‐MRI) metrics in renal parenchyma with renal function, in a cohort of patients with chronic liver disease.
