Magnetic resonance diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) has been widely used clinically in imaging diagnosis of intracranial disorders. The purpose of current study was to present a quantitative method of direct measuring the DWI signal intensity of brain gliomas on the monitors of hospital picture archiving and communicating system (PACS) for grading gliomas.
