In our study we found a significant difference between the ADC values of benign and malignant abdomino - pelvic pelvic lymph nodes with a threshold ADC value equal to 1.20 10 - 3mm2 / sec identified. This value could be used in the pre - treatment phase for better oncologic staging. DWI could be considered an important supportive tool in differentiation between benign and malignant lymph nodes, and can to a lesser extent differentiate between the types of malignant lymphadenopathy and as an indicator for improvement post chemotherapy or radiotherapy
