Automatic 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...
متن کاملAssessment of Kidney Function Using Dynamic Contrast Enhanced MRI Techniques
Graft failure of kidneys after transplantation is most often the consequence of the acute rejection. Hence, early detection of the kidney rejection is important for the treatment of renal diseases. In this chapter, authors introduce a new automatic approach to classify normal kidney function from kidney rejection using dynamic contrast enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (DCE-MRI). The kidney h...
متن کاملDevelopmental Analysis of Placental Vascularization using Dynamic Contrast- enhanced MRI
Introduction: The mammalian placenta allows respiratory gases, nutrients, and wastes to exchange between the maternal and fetal vascular systems. The importance of the placental circulation has long been recognized and is exemplified by the correlation of fetal weight with placental size, and uterine and umbilical blood flow [1]. Reduced placental blood flow can be used as a predictor of high r...
متن کاملDark Lumen MR Colonography: Comparison to Conventional Coloscopy
W. Ajaj, N. Papanikolaou, J. F. Debatin, T. Lauenstein, S. G. Ruehm University Hospital Essen, 45122 Essen, NRW, Germany, Department of Radiology, Crete, Crete, Greece ABSTRACT: The aim of this study was to assess MR colonography for the detection of colonic polyps/malignancy. 50 subjects underwent MR colonography prior to conventional colonoscopy. MRC is based on a rectal enema with water in c...
متن کاملDigital subtraction dark-lumen MR colonography: initial experience.
PURPOSE To evaluate image subtraction for the detection of colonic pathologies in a dark-lumen MR colonography exam. MATERIALS AND METHODS A total of 20 patients (12 males; 8 females; mean 51.4 years of age) underwent MR colonography after standard cleansing and a rectal water enema on a 1.5-T whole-body MR system. After suppression of peristaltic motion, native and Gd-contrast-enhanced three...
