The SUVmax of the respective lesions, however, showed a weaker negative correlation for ADCmean (r: -.311) and ADCmin (r: -.300) and did not reach statistical significance (p = .054 and p = .057).

Interestingly, our results show that the SUVmax of NF1 associated nerve sheath tumors showed a rather weak, negative correlation with ADCmean and ADCmin that only showed a clear trend towards statistical significance; however, it has to be acknowledged that our sample size was possibly too small to draw definitive conclusions.
