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

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: The different sensitivities to vessel size of gradient-echo
echo-planar imaging (GE-EPI) and spin-echo EPI (SE-EPI) might indicate the relative …

OBJECTIVE. Relative cerebral blood flow has rarely been studied as part of the preoperative
assessment of tumor grade, although relative cerebral blood volume is known to be useful …

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Imaging methods are currently being optimized in an
attempt to assess and monitor angiogenesis in vivo. The purpose of this investigation was to …

density in gliomas: A correlation with tumor cell proliferation. Invest Radiol 1999; 34: 427 …

An interleaved gradient‐echo (GE)/spin‐echo (SE) EPI sequence was used to acquire
images during the first pass of a susceptibility contrast agent, in patients with brain tumors …

PURPOSE: To implement an arterial spin labeling technique that is feasible in routine
examinations and to test the method and compare it with dynamic susceptibility-weighted …

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Relative cerebral blood volume (rCBV) measurements
derived from perfusion-weighted imaging (PWI) may be useful to evaluate angiogenesis and …

This study was designed to quantitatively analyse neovascular permeability in glioma by
dynamic contrast-enhanced MRI (DCE–MRI). Forty-four patients with glioma were included …

Neovascularization is a common phenomenon in gliomas. MR imaging cerebral blood
volume (CBV) mapping utilizes ultrafast echo-planar imaging and simultaneous use of …
