The added value of the visual analysis of DWI in post-surgery follow-up of soft tissue sarcoma of the extremities: do we really need ADC?

In this highly heterogeneous group of tumors, the role of ADC seems to be limited. Based on our experience, looking at DWI images makes the lesions promptly and easily detectable. This technique gives less deceptive findings making the reader more confident in detecting/excluding tumoral tissue; the main drawback is the image quality and the lack of standardization.
