Effect 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...

Dynamic Contrast Magnetic Resonance Imaging (DCE-MRI) and Diffusion Weighted MR Imaging (DWI) for Differentiation between Benign and Malignant Salivary Gland Tumors

Background: Salivary gland tumors form nearly 3% of head and neck tumors. Due to their large histological variety and vicinity to facial nerves, pre-operative diagnosis and differentiation of benign and malignant parotid tumors are a major challenge for radiologists. Objective: The majority of these tumors are benign; however, sometimes they tend to transform into a malignant form. Functional M...

Vascular and pharmacokinetic effects of EndoTAG-1 in patients with advanced cancer and liver metastasis.

BACKGROUND EndoTAG-1 (ET), a novel formulation of cationic liposomes carrying embedded paclitaxel (Taxol), shows antitumoral activity, targeting tumor endothelial cells in solid tumors. Patients with advanced metastatic cancer were evaluated investigating effects on pharmacokinetics and tumor vasculature using dynamic contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (DCE-MRI) and contrast-enhanced ...
