Parameter Fits Using Measured Population AIF vs. Literature AIF in DCE-MRI of Pancreatic Cancer Xenograft Model
Introduction. Dynamic contrast-enhanced MRI (DCE-MRI) has become an important tool in measuring tumour perfusion in animal models of cancer. Standard Kety model analysis of tumour perfusion [1] requires knowledge of the contrast agent concentration in the blood plasma, known as the arterial input function (AIF). Many DCE-MRI studies in mice use an assumed AIF taken from the literature (e.g. Lyn...
متن کاملAn Efficient Framework for Accurate Arterial Input Selection in DSC-MRI of Glioma Brain Tumors
Introduction: Automatic arterial input function (AIF) selection has an essential role in quantification of cerebral perfusion parameters. The purpose of this study is to develop an optimal automatic method for AIF determination in dynamic susceptibility contrast magnetic resonance imaging (DSC-MRI) of glioma brain tumors by using a new preprocessing method.Material and Methods: For this study, ...
متن کاملA population-based AIF for quantitative DCE-MRI of the rat abdomen acquired using dynamic high temporally and spatially resolved CT
Introduction Quantitative dynamic contrast-enhanced (DCE) MRI is a widely used technique for studies of tumor progress and viability. The method requires knowledge of the arterial plasma concentration of the contrast agent (CA) in the vessels feeding the tissue of interest. This arterial input function (AIF) must be sampled with a high temporal and spatial resolution to enable stable pharmacoki...
متن کاملComparison between MRI Blood-to-Brain Transfer Rate Constants from Individual MRI and Population Averaged Quantitative Autoradiographic Arterial Input Functions
Introduction: An arterial input function (AIF), plasma concentration versus time curve, for an MR contrast agent (MRCA) is used to estimate the blood–brain barrier (BBB) permeability of microvessels and several other vascular related parameters. In dynamic contrast-enhanced MRI (DCE-MRI), an intravenous step-down infusion (SDI) procedure that maintains a constant gadolinium-diethylenetriaminepe...
متن کاملAutomatic determination of arterial input function for estimating tumor microvessel density with dynamic contrast-enhanced MRI in mice model
Introduction Recently, application of DCE-MRI has gained increasing attention for use in drug development in pre-clinical research using mouse models, especially for assessment of angiogenesis for anti-angiogenic drug development (1). In the mouse, the AIF has been manually measured from a large arterial vessel in the center of the left heart ventricle (2). In this case, when the tumor is far f...
