Purpose: To present comprehensive examinations of the assumptions made in functional
diffusion map (fDM) analyses and provide a biological basis for fDM classification. Materials …

… [1] was determined from the average of all pixel values in a given image that did not demonstrate
steady-state signal enhancement greater than 1 SD above the pixel's average baseline …

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: No widespread clinical method provides specific information
about the angiogenic characteristics of gliomas. We characterized blood volume and …

Background The anti-VEGF antibody, bevacizumab, is standard treatment for patients with
recurrent glioblastoma. In this setting, traditional anatomic MRI methods such as post-contrast …

Purpose: The purpose of this study is to evaluate the impact of 18 F-fluorodeoxyglucose
positron emission tomography (FDG-PET) fused with planning computed tomography (CT) on …

Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is used to diagnose and monitor brain tumors. Extracting
additional information from medical imaging and relating it to a clinical variable of interest is …

We have investigated the time-and wavelength-resolved fluorescence of tetraphenylethylene
(TPE) induced by 355-nm picosecond excitation in several solvents over a range of …

Background Recent conflicting reports have found both brain tumor hypercellularity and
necrosis in regions of restricted diffusion on MRI-derived apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) …

Purpose. To provide sample size calculation for the quantitative assessment of carotid
atherosclerotic plaque using non-invasive magnetic resonance imaging in multi-center clinical …

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Patients with recurrent glioblastoma often exhibit regions
of diffusion restriction following the initiation of bevacizumab therapy. Studies suggest that …
