In vivo 19F nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy has the potential to non-invasively measure the concentration of 5-fluorouracil (FUra) and some of its metabolites in humans. Such a measure could be useful in predicting and optimizing the response of individual patients treated with FUra. T
19F Magnetic resonance spectroscopy was used to study the impact of the biochemical modulator thymidine (TdR) on the 5-fluorouracil (5FU) metabolism in the livers and radiation-induced fibrosarcoma (RIF-1) tumors of 5FU-treated C3H mice. The liver spectra measured after administration of 5FU (65 or
