Area and \u201cApparent Diffusion Coefficient (ADC)\u201d measurements of bilateral parotid and submandibular glands were measured in MRI images.

A significant difference was detected in right and left submandibular and parotid gland heterogeneity degrees according to the age groups of the patients (p&lt;0.05). While grade 0 and grade 1 were more common in the 18-50 age groups, grade 1 and grade 2 were more common in the 51-80 age groups. In each area; and ADC measurements of the parotid glands; and submandibular glands bilaterally, there were positive correlations (p&lt;0.05). However, there were negative correlations between ADC and area measurements in parotid glands (p&lt;0.05).\n                    <\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>As a result, it was observed that the heterogeneity in the gland increased as the age of the patients increased.
