Abstract Objective To evaluate the application effect of different MRI diffusion-weighted imaging models based on the apparent diffusion coefficient in distinguishing lung cancer from benign lung lesions. Methods This retrospective single-center study selected 49 patients from January 2020 to June 2021 as the study subjects, including the lung cancer group (n=32) and the benign disease group (n=17). All patients underwent diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) before surgery or biopsy. ADC histogram parameters, including mean, percentile values (10th and 90th), kurtosis, and skewness, were calculated independently by two radiologists. The histogram parameters were compared between patients with lung cancer and benign lesions. ROC curves were constructed to evaluate the diagnostic performance. Results The ADCmean, ADC10th, Dmean and D10th in the lung cancer group were significantly lower than the benign lesion group, and the ADCskewness and Dskewness were significantly higher than the benign lesion group. D10th and ADC10th had the best ability to diagnose benign lesions. The area under the curve (AUC) of D10th was 0.851, and the accuracy was 79.6% at the best critical value of 0.453×10-3 mm/s; the AUC of ADC10th was 0.814, and the accuracy was 83.4% at the best critical value of 0.504×10-3 mm/s. Conclusions Whole-lesion histogram analysis of ADC parameters derived from the DWI single-index and double-index models can distinguish lung cancer from benign lesions.
