## Abstract The purpose of this study was to evaluate the suitability of a macromolecular MRI contrast agent (paramagnetic nanoparticles, PNs) for the characterization of tumor angiogenesis. Our aim was to estimate the permeability of PNs in developing tumor vasculature and compare it with that of
## Abstract Since the role of angiogenesis in cancer development has been recognized, the study of anti‐angiogenic or anti‐vascular therapeutic agents has become increasingly important for cancer treatment. Selective thrombosis is one approach towards this goal. Since many types of carcinoma accumu
## Abstract In previous papers relative signal intensity increase was used as a quantitative assessment parameter for contrast uptake in contrastenhanced MRI. However, relative signal intensity increase does not only reflect contrast uptake but depends also on tissue parameters (native __T__~1~ rel
