We describe a standard set of quantity names and symbols related to the estimation of kinetic
parameters from dynamic contrast‐enhanced T 1 ‐weighted magnetic resonance imaging …

Imaging biomarkers (IBs) are integral to the routine management of patients with cancer. IBs
used daily in oncology include clinical TNM stage, objective response and left ventricular …

We propose a new scanning protocol for generating 4D‐CT image data sets influenced by
respiratory motion. A cine scanning protocol is used during data acquisition, and two …

Using the adiabatic approximation, which assumes that the tracer concentration in parenchymal
tissue changes slowly relative to that in capillaries, we derived a time-domain, closed-…

The recent “Advanced Neuroimaging for Acute Stroke Treatment” meeting on September 7
and 8, 2007 in Washington DC, brought together stroke neurologists, neuroradiologists, …

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Our objective was to develop a method to correct for the
effect of partial volume averaging (PVA) in the CT measurement of contrast enhancement in …

PURPOSE: To use first-pass perfusion computed tomography (CT) to prospectively
investigate tumor vascularity in rectal cancer and to determine whether any of the perfusion …

PURPOSE: To measure mean cerebral blood flow (CBF) in ischemic and nonischemic
territories and in low-attenuation regions in patients with acute stroke by using deconvolution-…

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: CT is an imaging technique that is routinely used for
evaluating brain tumors. Nonetheless, imaging often cannot show the distinction between …

Tumor angiogenesis is the process by which new blood vessels are formed from the existing
vessels in a tumor to promote tumor growth (1). Although angiogenesis is essential for …
