Comparison of DCE-MRI and Dual Echo DSC-MRI Derived Measures of K and ve
Introduction: DSC-MRI data from tumors may be confounded by the extravasation of contrast agent (CA) into the extravascular extracellular space (EES), which results in simultaneous changes in the EES T1 and T2*. It is well known that dual-echo acquisitions can eliminate the T1 leakage effects, but we recently demonstrated that such data, when combined with a pre-contrast T1 map, can also be use...
متن کاملDesign and Synthesis of Manganese based MRI contrast agent: A dual contrast under different MRI parameters
Introduction: Application of Gadolinium (Gd) based MRI contrast agents is limited in patients with severe renal disease or following liver transplant due to association of a recently reported incurable and nonmitigable Nephrogenic Systemic Fibrosis (NSF) disease. These limitations give rise to choose Mn (having 5 unpaired electrons) as a better paramagnetic label to obtain MRI contrast agents. ...
متن کاملDifferentiation of Breast Cancer from Fibroadenoma with Dual-Echo Dynamic Contrast-Enhanced MRI
Dynamic contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (DCE MRI) of the breast is a routinely used imaging method which is highly sensitive for detecting breast malignancy. Specificity, though, remains suboptimal. Dynamic susceptibility contrast magnetic resonance imaging (DSC MRI), an alternative dynamic contrast imaging technique, evaluates perfusion-related parameters unique from DCE MRI. Prev...
متن کاملAssessment of therapeutic response in Crohn's disease using quantitative dynamic contrast enhanced MRI (DCE-MRI) parameters
The aim of the study was to investigate dynamic contrast enhanced MRI (DCE-MRI) as a potential marker to assess the therapeutic responses of fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT) in patients with Crohn's disease (CD) and to determine the parameter or combination of parameters most strongly associated with changes in clinical indicators after treatment.In 22 CD patients, DCE-MRI was performed w...
متن کاملComparison of the Kinetic Parameters Estimated with Different Numerical Methods in Dce-mri
Introduction: Dynamic contrast enhanced MRI (DCE-MRI) has been shown its ability to noninvasively assess characterization of tumor by the kinetic parameters, such as volume transfer constant (K) and rate constant (kep). The Tofts and Kermode (TK) model [1] and modification of Tofts and Kermode (mTK) model [2] are both popular pharmacokinetic models. Nonlinear least-squares (NLSQ) method is ofte...
