## Abstract In this study quantitation of the degree of deficiency of the blood‐brain barrier (BBB) in patients with multiple sclerosis or brain tumors, by using MRI, is shown to be possible. As a measure of permeability of the BBB to Gadolinium‐DTPA (Gd‐DTPA) the flux per unit of distribution volu
## Abstract Sequential MR imaging with gadolinium‐diethylenetriaminepentaacetic acid (Gd‐DTPA) and sequential measurements of plasma Gd‐DTPA concentration by inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectroscopy (ICP‐AES) were used to estimate the blood‐to‐tissue transport coefficient (K~i~) in t
