A capillary input function for pharmacokinetic analysis of DCE-MRI breast cancer curves
INTRODUCTION Dynamic contrast-enhanced MRI (DCE-MRI) is frequently used to detect, diagnose and stage breast cancer [1]. A common method of data analysis is to fit a compartmental model to the signal change-versus-time curve and to characterise it by two parameters; K , the surface area permeability, and νe, the fractional volume of the extracellular compartment [2]. This approach requires an e...

متن کاملImproved hepatic arterial fraction estimation using cardiac output correction of arterial input functions for liver DCE MRI.
Liver dynamic contrast enhanced (DCE) MRI pharmacokinetic modelling could be useful in the assessment of diffuse liver disease and focal liver lesions, but is compromised by errors in arterial input function (AIF) sampling. In this study, we apply cardiac output correction to arterial input functions (AIFs) for liver DCE MRI and investigate the effect on dual-input single compartment hepatic pe...
متن کاملTowards Robust and Automated Identification of Vascular Input Function in DCE-MRI
Introduction Dynamic contrast enhanced MRI (DCE-MRI) holds potential for characterizing key physiological markers of tumor vascularity such as blood brain barrier permeability, which is believed to predict response to therapy and correlate with overall survival time [1]. Robust quantification of permeability is contingent on reliable characterization of contrast agent concentration in feeding v...
متن کاملTissue estimated vascular input functions improve DCE-MRI model fitting
Introduction Dynamic contrast enhanced (DCE) imaging allows for the characterization of vascular tissue properties, such as K and extra cellular volume. To model the pharmacokinetic (PK) behaviour of the injected contrast agent, it is necessary to estimate or measure the arterial input function (AIF) of the imaged region. To reduce the variability in a measured AIF, a population AIF is often us...
