The liver is among the organs that trap lymphocytes flowing through their blood vasculature. These cells, marginated in sinusoids, participate in the liver's anti-viral and anti-tumor processes. The molecular mechanism of this lymphocyte margination and cooperation with resident sinusoidal cells remains obscure and inadequately studied due to the difficulties in obtaining samples of sinusoidal ...
PURPOSE To assess the quality of the arterial input function (AIF) reconstructed using a dedicated pre-bolus low-dose contrast material injection imaged with a high temporal resolution and the resulting estimated liver perfusion parameters. MATERIALS AND METHODS In this IRB-approved prospective study, 24 DCE-MRI examinations were performed in 21 patients with liver disease (M/F 17/4, mean age...
Primary culture of human hepatocytes is an in vitro model widely used to investigate numerous aspects of liver physiology and pathology. The technique used to isolate human hepatocytes is based on two-step collagenase perfusion. Originally performed in situ for obtaining hepatocytes from the adult rat, this technique has been adapted to the ex vivo treatment of human liver from organ donors or ...
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...
OBJECTIVES The goal of this study was to develop free-breathing high-spatiotemporal resolution dynamic contrast-enhanced liver magnetic resonance imaging using non-Cartesian parallel imaging acceleration, and quantitative liver perfusion mapping. MATERIALS AND METHODS This study was approved by the local institutional review board and written informed consent was obtained from all participant...
BACKGROUND Three-dimensional (3D) whole-liver perfusion magnetic resonance (MR) imaging with parallel imaging, a novel imaging method to characterize tumor vascularization in vivo, has recently been applied to comprehensively image perfusion changes in large tumors. Coupled with new perfusion software, this technique enables motion correction, registration, and evaluation of perfusion MR parame...
Perfusing a rat liver with digitonin in the concentration range 2-20mg/ml results in complete decolorization of the organ within 45-250s. Decolorization progresses with time in the direction of flow, and it is therefore possible, by collecting the eluate, to obtain material from specific intracellular compartments of hepatocytes in different zones in the microcirculatory unit of the liver. The ...
A method of in situ perfusion of rat liver via the portal vein is described, by which osmiumtetroxide fixative can be introduced rapidly and uniformly to all parts of the tissue. Previous perfusion with balanced physiological saline solution, under the conditions described, of itself causes minimal change in the liver cell and liver architecture. Perfusion with a chelating agent causes no furth...
Improved therapeutic options for hepatocellular carcinoma and metastatic disease place greater demands on diagnostic and surveillance tests for liver disease. Existing diagnostic imaging techniques provide limited evaluation of tissue characteristics beyond morphology; perfusion imaging of the liver has potential to improve this shortcoming. The ability to resolve hepatic arterial and portal ve...
Purpose. To assess the diagnostic accuracy of dynamic susceptibility contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (DSCE-MRI) in differentiation between benign and malignant liver lesions by assessment of tumoral perfusion parameters. Methods Materials. Seventy-three patients with known focal liver lesions, including 45 benign (16 FNH, 27 angiomas, and 2 abscesses) and 28 malignant ones (17 meta...
