The MRI signal enhancement in a breast tumor, measured as a function of time after a bolus
injection of Gd‐DTPA, may contain enough information to differentiate malignant from …

We propose a compartmental model to explain the signal enhancement curves following the
bolus injection of Gd‐DTPA. The model incorporates vascular volume fraction contribution …

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 …

Leakage of Gd‐DTPA through a defective blood‐brain barrier is measured quantitatively
using dynamic MRI scanning, in which repeated scans are made after a bolus injection …

A technique for the simultaneous measurement of three vascular parameters: blood flow
(Fρ), blood volume (vb), and the capillary permeability‐surface area product (PSρ) in breast …

This paper describes a measurement protocol for acquiring quantitative dynamic MRI data
and novel analysis and display software (Magnetic Resonance Imaging Workbench …

Objective: To assess dynamic Gd-DTPA-enhanced magnetic resonance (MR) imaging in the
diagnosis of primary breast pathology, and to test the hypothesis that analysis of contrast …

A method is presented for the acquisition and analysis of dynamic contrast‐enhanced (DCE)
MRI data, focused on the characterization of tumors in humans. Gadolinium (Gd) contrast …

This review is focused on two relatively new developments in magnetic resonance imaging
(MRI) and their application to breast lesion characterization: diffusion and perfusion MRI …

PURPOSE: To correlate quantitative echo-planar magnetic resonance (MR) imaging
measures of gadopentetate dimeglumine tumor uptake with histologic diagnoses and …
