Objective: To evaluate the ability of conventional MRI, diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) and dynamic contrast-enhanced (DCE) MRI to differentiate malignant and benign parotid lesions.Methods: A retrospective review of MRI findings was performed in patients with pathologically confirmed parotid lesions between January 2010 and December 2014. Morphological MRI characteristics and functional characteristics such as apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) and pattern of time-signal intensity curve (TIC) were recorded and compared. For each lesion, summed scores were respectively calculated for conventional MRI alone, conventional MRI with DWI and/or with DCE-MRI. Statistical analyses were performed to assess the association of these characteristics and summed scores with malignancy.Results: A total of 207 patients (111 males and 96 females; age: 48.4 +/- 17.0 years) were included, consisting of 156 benign and 51 malignant tumours. After adjusting for age, sex, smoking status, alcohol use and tumour size, the lesions with ill-defined margin, adjacent tissue infiltration, cervical lymphadenopathy, ADC
