No longer simply a research tool, dynamic contrastenhanced MR imaging has become a
clinically useful tool in brain imaging. T2 or T2* changes during the bolus passage of a …

For the past century, radiologic-pathologic correlation has been the backbone of medical
imaging. By correlating medical images to gross and histologic pathologic images, we can …

Dynamic contrast-enhanced perfusion MR imaging of the brain provides hemodynamic
information that complements the anatomic information attainable with conventional MR …

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Abnormalities in the recirculation phase of the passage of
a contrast agent bolus have been identified in tumors and have been suggested to represent …

Cerebrovascular hemodynamic assessment adds new information to standard anatomic MR
imaging and improves patient care. This article reviews the theoretic underpinnings of …

Purpose To determine the true impact of dispersion upon cerebral blood flow (CBF)
quantification by removing an algorithm implementation‐induced systematic error. Materials …

The effects of vascular endothelial growth factor/vascular permeability factor (VEGF/VPF)
and other growth factors on vascular perfusion and permeability have been under …

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) and vascular
permeability (Ktrans) permit in vivo assessment of glioma microvasculature. We assessed …

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Numerous different parameters measured by perfusion
MR imaging can be used for characterizing gliomas. Parameters derived from 3 different …
