متن کاملSynovial volume vs synovial measurements from dynamic contrast enhanced MRI as measures of response in osteoarthritis
OBJECTIVE Synovium is increasingly a target of osteoarthritis (OA) treatment, yet its optimal measurement is unclear. Using dynamic contrast enhanced (DCE) MRI in knee OA patients before and after intraarticular steroid injection, we compared the responsiveness of static synovial volume measures to measures of dynamic changes in synovial enhancement, changes that are strongly related to synovia...
متن کاملPartial volume-related errors in parameters derived from dynamic contrast-enhanced MRI – implications for clinical trials
Introduction Tracer kinetic model parameters are frequently used in clinical trials to measure the efficacy of cancer therapeutics. Typically, the parameters are estimated for each voxel within a volume of interest (VOI) that is drawn around the tumour. The mean or median value is then calculated for the VOI and compared at different stages of the treatment. A simultaneous reduction in the tumo...
متن کاملAutomatic 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 کاملAnalysis of Dynamic Contrast Enhanced MRI Datasets
The purpose of this research is to perform automated analysis of 4D dynamic contrast enhanced MRI datasets (DCE-MRI) of the hand and wrist relating to rheumatoid arthritis (RA) studies. In DCE-MRI, sequences of images are acquired from the joints over time, during which a contrast agent pre-injected into a patient enhances disease affected tissues. Measurement of this enhancement, which is spec...
