FIG 3. Whole-tumor ROI analysis for gliomas.
A, GE rCBV, which is sensitive to total blood volume, is significantly correlated with tumor grade (n = 72).
B, Conversely, SE rCBV, which is sensitive to microvascular blood volume, is not significantly correlated with tumor grade (n = 67).
C,
R2*/
R2 ratio, an index of mVD, is significantly correlated with tumor grade (n = 67).
