Predicting response to benzamide riboside chemotherapy in hepatocellular carcinoma using apparent diffusion coefficient of water.
AIM To monitor the effects of the apoptotic agent benzamide riboside (BR) on tumor volume and water apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) in rat hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). MATERIALS AND METHODS Water ADC of the tumors and nearby liver tissue was measured using diffusion-weighted 1H MRI (DWI). The two groups of BR-treated animals, which differed in their sensitivity to the treatment, were ...
متن کاملApparent diffusion coefficient normalization of normal liver
Apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) measurement in diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) has been reported to be a helpful biomarker for detection and characterization of lesion. In view of the importance of ADC measurement reproducibility, the aim of this study was to probe the variability of the healthy hepatic ADC values measured at 3 MR scanners from different vendors and with different field s...
متن کاملapparent diffusion coefficient value as a predictive marker to evaluate tumor response in patients with cervical cancer
conclusions adc valuecould be a prognostic factor to monitor the response to therapy for patients with cervical cancer. the addition of dw-mri to the conventional mri protocolsconsiderably improved the diagnostic ability of mr imaging method for tumor evaluations. results studies had shown thatthe mean adc value of cervical carcinoma (1.110 ± 0.175 × 10-3 mm2/s)is significantly lower than that ...
متن کامل3D analysis of apparent diffusion coefficient histograms in hepatocellular carcinoma: correlation with histological grade
BACKGROUND To evaluate the usefulness of differentiation of histological grade in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) using three-dimensional (3D) analysis of apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) histograms retrospectively. METHODS The subjects consisted of 53 patients with 56 HCCs. The subjects included 12 well-differentiated, 35 moderately differentiated, and nine poorly differentiated HCCs. Dif...
متن کاملEarly Response of Hepatocellular Carcinoma to Chemoembolization: Volume Computed Tomography Liver Perfusion Imaging as a Short-Term Response Predictor.
OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to investigate the efficacy of lesion-oriented whole-liver computed tomography (CT) perfusion for predicting transarterial chemoembolization early treatment response in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). METHODS Volume helical shuttle CT perfusion imaging on the whole liver was prospectively performed on 39 patients with 46 independent HCC lesion...
