Standard-b-value vs low-b-value DWI for differentiation of benign and malignant vertebral fractures: a meta-analysis

OBJECTIVE: To determine the comparative diagnostic performance of standard-b-value (≥500 mm(2)) vs low-b-value (<500s mm(−2)) diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) for discriminating malignant from benign vertebral compression fractures.
