Optimum ADC determination and DW imaging quality at 3.0 T was found with a combined b value protocol of 50 and 850 sec/mm2. This provided a high accuracy for differentiation of benign and malignant breast tumors
Standardization of b values allows improved inter-study comparisons on the diagnostic accuracy of diffusion-weighted MR breast examinations
