Can Dynamic Contrast-Enhanced MRI (DCE-MRI) and Diffusion-Weighted MRI (DW-MRI) Evaluate Inflammation Disease
The aim of the study was to investigate diagnosis efficacy of dynamic contrast-enhanced MRI (DCE-MRI) and diffusion-weighted MRI (DW-MRI) in Crohn's disease (CD). To find out the correlations between functional MRI parameters including K, Kep, Ve, Vp, and apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) with a serologic biomarker. The relationships between pharmacokinetic parameters and ADC were also studi...
متن کاملClassification of DCE-MRI Data for Breast Cancer Diagnosis Combining Contrast Agent Dynamics and Texture Features
Classification of breast tumors via dynamic contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging is an important task for tumor diagnosis. In this paper, we present an approach for automatic tumor segmentation, feature generation and classification. We apply fuzzy c-means on co-occurrence texture features to generate discriminative features for classification. High-frequency information is removed via ...
متن کاملAnalyzing DCE-MRI data
I. Overview Dynamic Contrast Enhanced MRI (DCE-MRI) is a rapidly evolving imaging technique. It is the current standard for breast MR imaging; also many research studies have been conducted to evaluate its application for various clinical problems. The development of gadolinium-based contrast agents in early 1980 opened a new era for imaging of tumors and vascular systems. Tumors require a high...
متن کاملDynamic Contrast Enhanced MRI (DCE-MRI): From the Simplest to the Most Advanced DCE-Model
1. Tracer Kinetic Modeling • Extracellular agents (such as Gd-DTPA) accumulate in the interstitium of many tissues (e.g. muscle) but do not cross the healthy blood-brain-barrier. • Functional information may be obtained by treating Gd-DTPA as a tracer and following its kinetics (as opposed to the conventional ‘static’ approach, inject wait – image once). • After intravenous administration (norm...
متن کاملSpatially regularized estimation for the analysis of DCE-MRI data
Competing compartment models of different complexities have been used for the quantitative analysis of Dynamic Contrast-Enhanced Magnetic Resonance Imaging data. We present a spatial Elastic Net approach that allows to estimate the number of compartments for each voxel such that the model complexity is not fixed a priori. A multi-compartment approach is considered, which is translated into a re...
