Description

Highlights: • Age, Hb, and RDW are the predominant predictors of bone marrow signals on DWI. • Low ADC and high visibility are relevant to young age, anemia and hematopoiesis. • Bone marrow ADCs were positively correlated with age and PDFF. • Fat-suppression methods and middle-age physiology may have affected the results. - Abstract: Purpose: To identify the predictors of bone-marrow DWI signals from anthropometric, complete blood count (CBC), and C-reactive protein (CRP), and to evaluate the association with fat-content in patients.
