There is growing interest in investigating the role of subtle changes in blood–brain barrier (BBB) function in common neurological disorders and the possible use of imaging techniques to assess these abnormalities. Some studies have used dynamic contrast-enhanced MR imaging (DCE-MRI) and these have
## Abstract Dextran‐magnetite particles (DMP) were studied for their use as a MR contrast agent to visualize lesions with a blood‐brain barrier (bbb) disruption. A freezing injury to the rat cerebral cortex was used as a model of bbb disruption. The biodistribution of iv‐injected DMP was studied us
## Abstract ## Purpose: To design a more accurate and reproducible technique for the measurement of blood–brain barrier (BBB) permeability in gadolinium‐enhancing multiple sclerosis (MS) lesions. ## Materials and Methods: Four MS patients were scanned using a new dynamic contrast‐enhanced (DCE)‐
