Rationale and Objectives: The study aimed to investigate whether intravoxel incoherent motion (IVIM) and dynamic contrast enhanced (DCE) magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) can differentiate luminal-B from luminal-A breast cancerMaterials and Methods: Biexponential analyses of IVIM and DCE MRI were performed using a 3.0-T MRI scanner, involving 134 patients with 137 pathologically confirmed luminal-type invasive breast cancers. Luminal-type breast cancer was categorized as luminal-B breast cancer (LBBC, Ki-67 >= 14%) or luminal-A breast cancer (LABC, Ki-67 < 14%). Quantitative parameters from IVIM (pure diffusion coefficient [D], perfusion-related diffusion coefficient [D*], and fraction [f]) and DCE MRI (initial percentage of enhancement and signal enhancement ratio [SER]) were calculated. The apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) was also calculated using monoexponential fitting. We correlated these data with the Ki-67 status.Results: The D and ADC values of LBBC were significantly lower than those of LABC (P = 0.028, P = 0.037). The SER of LBBC was significantly higher than that of LABC (P = 0.004). A univariate analysis showed that a significantly lower D (
