Purpose: To present a review of most commonly used techniques to analyze dynamic
contrast‐enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (DCE‐MRI), discusses their strengths and …

The most common methods for measuring perfusion with MRI are arterial spin labelling
(ASL), dynamic susceptibility contrast (DSC-MRI), and T1-weighted dynamic contrast …

MRI of the kidney currently makes the transition from depiction of morphology to assessment
of function. Functional renal imaging methods provide information on diffusion and perfusion …

The kidney is a very important complicated filtering organ of the body. When the kidney
reaches stage 5 chronic kidney disease, end stage renal failure, the preeminent therapy is …

Renal function is characterized by different physiologic aspects, including perfusion,
glomerular filtration, interstitial diffusion, and tissue oxygenation. Magnetic resonance …

A novel framework for the classification of acute rejection versus nonrejection status of renal
transplants from 2-D dynamic contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging is proposed …

The objective was to develop a novel and automated comprehensive framework for the non‐
invasive identification and classification of kidney non‐rejection and acute rejection …

This paper introduces a novel computer aided diagnostic (CAD) system for early diagnosis
of acute renal rejection (ARR) from 3D diffusion-weighted MRI (DW-MRI) data (2D+ fe …

Objective To model the uptake phase of T 1-weighted DCE-MRI data in normal kidneys and
to demonstrate that the fitted physiological parameters correlate with published normal …

This chapter overviews one of the most critical problems in urology, namely detection of
acute renal transplant rejection. Developing an effective, fast, and accurate computer-aided …
