Pharmacokinetic Modeling Study on Bone Perfusion of Osteoporosis
Introduction: Clinical, epidemiological and histological studies have indicated a link between vascular disease and osteoporosis (1). Dynamic contrast-enhanced MRI (DCE-MRI) provides a more direct measure of bone perfusion. DCE-MRI studies have consistently shown how semi-quantitative perfusion parameters are consistently reduced in osteopenic and osteoporotic bone compared to normal bone miner...
متن کاملEvaluation of DCE-MRI postprocessing techniques to assess metastatic bone marrow in patients with prostate cancer.
Dynamic contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging was performed in control patients with normal bone marrow and patients with untreated bone metastases of prostate cancer (PCa). Perfusion data were assessed using region of interest-based and pixel-wise current standard postprocessing techniques (signal intensity pattern, increase in signal intensity, upslope, time to peak, extended Kety mode...
متن کاملMuscle-Based Pharmacokinetic Modeling of Marrow Perfusion for Osteoporotic Bone in Females
The pharmacokinetic model has been widely used in tissue perfusion analysis, such as bone marrow perfusion. In the modeling process, the arterial input function is important to guarantee the reliability of the fitting result. However, the arterial input function is variable and hard to control, which makes it difficult to compare results across different studies. The purpose of this study was t...
متن کاملEffect of Bias in Contrast Agent Concentration Measurement on Estimated Pharmacokinetic Parameters in Brain Dynamic Contrast-Enhanced Magnetic Resonance Imaging Studies
Introduction: Pharmacokinetic (PK) modeling of dynamic contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (DCE-MRI) is widely applied in tumor diagnosis and treatment evaluation. Precision analysis of the estimated PK parameters is essential when they are used as a measure for therapy evaluation or treatment planning. In this study, the accuracy of PK parameters in brain DCE...
متن کاملEvaluation of the accuracy of dynamic contrast enhanced MRI in the diagnosis of invasive prostate neoplasm using pathological findings
Background: Prostate cancer is the most common malignancy in men and the second leading cause of death in all countries of the world. The exact mechanism of prostate cancer is not known. On the other hand, early detection of prostate cancer can lead to a complete cure. Several clinical experiments including Digital Rectum Examination (DRE), biochemistry such as Prostate Specific Antigen (PSA), ...
