Figure 3. Cyst of the right kidney. (a) Axial turbo spin echo (TSE) T2 weighted image with fat saturation. The lesion is clearly hyperintense. (b) Diffusion-weighted spin-echo echo planar imaging (SE EPI) image with b=0 s mm–2. The cyst is highly hyperintense. (c) Diffusion-weighted SE EPI image with b=500 s mm–2. The cyst is slightly hyperintense. (d) Apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) map. The ADC value measured at the cyst level is 3.48±0.16 x 10–3 mm2 s–1, while the ADC value measured in the renal parenchyma is 2.16±0.19 x 10–3 mm2 s–1.
