MATERIAL AND METHODS: This retrospective study included 25 patients with HIE and 50 patients as the control group. Diffusion-weighted imaging was obtained at b -values of 1000 mm2 /s. The histogram parameters of ADC values, including the mean, minimum, maximum, 5th , 10th , 25th , 50th , 75th , 90th , and 95th percentiles, as well as skewness, kurtosis, and variance were determined...
