We describe a standard set of quantity names and symbols related to the estimation of
kinetic parameters from dynamic contrast‐enhanced T1‐weighted magnetic resonance …

This review presents the current state of the art regarding multiparametric magnetic
resonance (MR) imaging of prostate cancer. Technical requirements and clinical indications …

Purpose: To present a review of most commonly used techniques to analyze dynamic
contrast‐enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (DCE‐MRI), discusses their strengths and …

Three major models (from Tofts, Larsson, and Brix) for collecting and analyzing dynamic MRI
gadolinium‐diethylenetriamine penta‐acetic acid (Gd‐DTPA) data are examined. All models …

The microvascular network formed by the capillaries supplies the tissues and permits their
function. It provides a considerable surface area for exchanges between blood and tissues …

Background—With MRI, an index of myocardial perfusion reserve (MPRI) can be
determined. We assessed the value of this technique for the noninvasive detection of …

Cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (CMR) is well established and considered the gold
standard for assessing myocardial volumes and function, and for quantifying myocardial …

Purpose: PTK787/ZK 222584 (PTK/ZK), an orally active inhibitor of vascular endothelial
growth factor (VEGF) receptor tyrosine kinases, inhibits VEGF-mediated angiogenesis. The …

Background Recent studies have shown that quantification of myocardial perfusion (MP) at
stress and myocardial perfusion reserve (MPR) offer additional diagnostic and prognostic …

Assessment of vascular properties is essential to diagnosis and follow‐up and basic
understanding of pathogenesis in brain tumors. In this study, a procedure is presented that …
