Tracer Kinetic Modeling in PET.
Molecular imaging using PET provides a unique tool for noninvasively investigating the biochemistry of living organs. The wide range of radiolabeled molecules makes it possible to explore various biochemical, physiologic, and pharmacologic processes in vivo. Because each radiotracer is characterized by its particular kinetic behavior in the human body, the quantification of this behavior is a c...
متن کاملDirect estimation of tracer-kinetic parameter maps from highly undersampled brain dynamic contrast enhanced MRI.
PURPOSE The purpose of this work was to develop and evaluate a T1 -weighted dynamic contrast enhanced (DCE) MRI methodology where tracer-kinetic (TK) parameter maps are directly estimated from undersampled (k,t)-space data. THEORY AND METHODS The proposed reconstruction involves solving a nonlinear least squares optimization problem that includes explicit use of a full forward model to conver...
متن کاملModeling Tracer Kinetics in Dynamic GdlDTPA
Three major models (from Tofts, Larsson, and Brix) for collecting and analyzing dynamic MRI gadolinium-diethylenetriamine penta-acetic acid (GI-DTPA) data are examined. All models use compartments representing the blood plasma and the abnormal extravascular extracellular space (EES), and they are intercompatible. All measure combinations of three parameters: (1) kPSp is the influx volume transf...
متن کاملThe Use of Dynamic Tracer Concentration in Veins for Quantitative DCE-MRI Kinetic Analysis in Head and Neck
BACKGROUND Head and neck Magnetic Resonance (MR) Images are vulnerable to the arterial blood in-flow effect. To compensate for this effect and enhance accuracy and reproducibility, dynamic tracer concentration in veins was proposed and investigated for quantitative dynamic contrast-enhanced (DCE) MRI analysis in head and neck. METHODOLOGY 21 patients with head and neck tumors underwent DCE-MR...
متن کاملAutomatic Prostate Cancer Segmentation Using Kinetic Analysis in Dynamic Contrast-Enhanced MRI
Background: Dynamic contrast enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (DCE-MRI) provides functional information on the microcirculation in tissues by analyzing the enhancement kinetics which can be used as biomarkers for prostate lesions detection and characterization.Objective: The purpose of this study is to investigate spatiotemporal patterns of tumors by extracting semi-quantitative as well as w...
