Spanish term or phrase: corte (in this context)
Am I right to translate "corte" as "level" in this context please?

Establecen un valor de ADC de 1,67 x 10-3 mm2/s, si bien es el promedio de todas las lesiones benignas (incluyendo quistes y adenopatías), no solo de los APs.
No obstante, el 60% de nuestras lesiones superaban también este corte.
Nuestro trabajo es el único de diseño prospectivo que estudia exclusivamente el comportamiento de los APs.

Thank you for your help.

agree  Filippe Vasconcellos de Freitas Guimarães: Perfect. I might go with “threshold” as well in this context.

  -> The concept of “threshold” is part of cutoff, in this case I think cutoff is better, but Eileen has to choose.

threshold [cutoff value]


Explanation:
Supongo que cutoff value podría funcionar también. En este caso tengo la sensación de que resulta más natural leer threshold aquí. Por ejemplo,
Nevertheless, 60 percent of lesions in our study were above this threshold.
