## Abstract ## Purpose To determine thresholds of quality for a T2\*‐weighted perfusion magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) study and evaluate the effects of an angiogenesis inhibitor on relative blood flow and volume changes in brain tumor patients in a multi‐institution setting. ## Materials and M
## Abstract ## Purpose To evaluate the contribution to scan‐rescan coefficient of variation (CV) of patient‐specific arterial input function (AIF) measurement in dynamic contrast‐enhanced MRI (DCE‐MRI) data, and to determine whether any advantage or disadvantage to using a data‐derived arterial in
Gd-DTPA kinetics in arterial blood was investigated by dynamic MRI in 47 patients with malignant and benign mammary tumors. Signal enhancement was monitored for 10 min after the beginning of a 1-min infusion of 0.1 mmol/kg Gd-DTPA. Kinetics in blood was biexponential with median half-lives of 21 sec
