Tumor Delineation and Quantitative Assessment of Glucose Metabolic Rate within Histologic Subtypes of Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer by Using Dynamic <sup>18</sup>F Fluorodeoxyglucose PET.
(2017-05)
Purpose To assess whether dynamic fluorine 18 ( 18 F) fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) positron emission tomography (PET) has added value over static 18 F-FDG PET for tumor delineation in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) radiation ...
Determining the chemical exchange saturation transfer (CEST) behavior of citrate and spermine under in vivo conditions.
(WILEY-BLACKWELL, 2016-09-01)
PURPOSE: To estimate the exchange rates of labile (1) H in citrate and spermine, metabolites present in prostatic secretions, to predict the size of the citrate and spermine CEST effects in vivo. METHODS: CEST z-spectra ...
Data-driven mapping of hypoxia-related tumor heterogeneity using DCE-MRI and OE-MRI.
(WILEY, 2018-04-01)
PURPOSE: Previous work has shown that combining dynamic contrast-enhanced (DCE)-MRI and oxygen-enhanced (OE)-MRI binary enhancement maps can identify tumor hypoxia. The current work proposes a novel, data-driven method for ...
Visualizing the autonomic and somatic innervation of the female pelvis with 3D MR neurography: a feasibility study.
(SAGE PUBLICATIONS LTD, 2020-12-01)
BACKGROUND: Treatment of female pelvic malignancies often causes pelvic nerve damage. Magnetic resonance (MR) neurography mapping the female pelvic innervation could aid in treatment planning. PURPOSE: To depict female ...
Volumetry of the dominant intraprostatic tumour lesion: intersequence and interobserver differences on multiparametric MRI.
(BRITISH INST RADIOLOGY, 2017-03-01)
OBJECTIVE: To establish the interobserver reproducibility of tumour volumetry on individual multiparametric (mp) prostate MRI sequences, validate measurements with histology and determine whether functional to morphological ...
Comparison of six fit algorithms for the intra-voxel incoherent motion model of diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging data of pancreatic cancer patients.
(PUBLIC LIBRARY SCIENCE, 2018-04-04)
The intravoxel incoherent motion (IVIM) model for diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) MRI data bears much promise as a tool for visualizing tumours and monitoring treatment response. To improve the currently poor precision ...
Multiparametric Magnetic Resonance Imaging for Bladder Cancer: Development of VI-RADS (Vesical Imaging-Reporting And Data System).
(ELSEVIER SCIENCE BV, 2018-09-01)
CONTEXT: Management of bladder cancer (BC) is primarily driven by stage, grade, and biological potential. Knowledge of each is derived using clinical, histopathological, and radiological investigations. This multimodal ...
Repeatability and sensitivity of T2* measurements in patients with head and neck squamous cell carcinoma at 3T.
(WILEY-BLACKWELL, 2016-07-01)
PURPOSE: To determine whether quantitation of T2* is sufficiently repeatable and sensitive to detect clinically relevant oxygenation levels in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) at 3T. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Ten ...
A data-driven statistical model that estimates measurement uncertainty improves interpretation of ADC reproducibility: a multi-site study of liver metastases.
(NATURE PORTFOLIO, 2017-10-26)
Apparent Diffusion Coefficient (ADC) is a potential quantitative imaging biomarker for tumour cell density and is widely used to detect early treatment changes in cancer therapy. We propose a strategy to improve confidence ...
Stability of radiomics features in apparent diffusion coefficient maps from a multi-centre test-retest trial.
(NATURE PORTFOLIO, 2019-03-18)
Quantitative radiomics features, extracted from medical images, characterize tumour-phenotypes and have been shown to provide prognostic value in predicting clinical outcomes. Stability of radiomics features extracted from ...
