The purpose was to identify the most characteristic and significant changes in indicators for patients with bladder cancer during DWI. From September 2009 till August 2014 167 patients were examined, among them 91 (54,5%) with morphologically verified bladder cancer and 75 (45,5%) with cystitis.The study revealed that the sensitivity of DWI-study in detecting bladder cancer is98,36%, specificity -10,81%, the efficacy 65,38%.
