The present study could not identify statistical significant associations between DWI and histopathology in muscle diseases based upon a small patient sample. Presumably, the investigated histopathology scores are more specific for certain disease aspects, whereas ADC values reflect the whole cellularity of the investigated muscle, which might cause the negative results.
