A radiologist analyzed the bladder wall signal; he was blinded to the patients\u2019 clinical data. According to the 2008 European Society for the Study of Bladder Pain Syndrome\/Interstitial Cystitis criteria, 2 groups of patients were determined: BPS\/IC and no BPS\/IC. The association between BPS\/IC and the wall signal intensity was compared. &lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;Results:&lt;\/i&gt;&lt;\/b&gt; In the 106 patients included, 82 had criteria for BPS\/IC and 24 did not. A significant difference in the distribution of the signal was found between the 2 groups (&lt;i&gt;p&lt;\/i&gt; = 0.01). High signal intensity of the bladder wall was related to the presence of a BPS\/IC with a sensitivity of 28% and a specificity of 88%. No signal intensity of the bladder wall was related to the absence of a BPS\/IC with a sensitivity of 96% and a specificity of 29%. &lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;Conclusions:&lt;\/i&gt;&lt;\/b&gt; In \u00adDWMRI, high bladder wall signal intensity helps to affirm a BPS\/IC, whereas the absence of signal helps to exclude the diagnosis. Further studies are needed to confirm these preliminary results.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1159\/000493507","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2018,11,14]],"date-time":"2018-11-14T17:01:25Z","timestamp":1542214885000},"page":"109-112","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":15,"title":["Diffusion-Weighted Magnetic Resonance Imaging: A New Tool for the Diagnosis of Bladder Pain Syndrome\/Interstitial Cystitis"],"prefix":"10.1159","volume":"102","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-7242-3860","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Audrey","family":"Charlanes","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Frank","family":"Boudghene","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Camille","family":"Chesnel","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Calin","family":"Ciofu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Fr\u00e9d\u00e9rique","family":"Le\u00a0Breton","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Maryl\u00e8ne","family":"Jousse","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"G\u00e9rard","family":"Amarenco","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Philippe","family":"Manceau","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"127","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2018,11,14]]},"container-title":["Urologia Internationalis"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/www.karger.com\/Article\/Pdf\/493507","content-type":"application\/pdf","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"https:\/\/www.karger.com\/Article\/Pdf\/493507","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2025,4,23]],"date-time":"2025-04-23T12:52:41Z","timestamp":1745412761000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/karger.com\/article\/doi\/10.1159\/000493507"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2018,11,14]]},"references-count":0,"journal-issue":{"issue":"1","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2019,1,10]]},"published-print":{"date-parts":[[2019,1,15]]}},"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1159\/000493507","archive":["Portico"],"relation":{"has-review":[{"id-type":"doi","id":"10.3410\/f.735641379.793559584","asserted-by":"object"}]},"ISSN":["0042-1138","1423-0399"],"issn-type":[{"value":"0042-1138","type":"print"},{"value":"1423-0399","type":"electronic"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2018,11,14]]}}}
