In recent years, near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) has gained importance for non-invasive
or minimally invasive diagnostic applications in cancer. This technology is based on …

The fluorine atom provides an exciting tool for diverse spectroscopic and imaging
applications using Magnetic Resonance. The organic chemistry of fluorine is widely …

Purpose:“ARCON” combines accelerated radiotherapy to counteract tumor repopulation with
carbogen breathing and nicotinamide to reduce chronic and acute hypoxia. The aim of this …

Publisher Summary This chapter discusses the measurement of changes in tumor
oxygenation. The oxygen pressure determinations could be of great clinical value and they …

Purpose To investigate the physiological origins responsible for the varying blood
oxygenation level dependent (BOLD) magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) responses to …

Purpose: For head-and-neck tumors, breathing a hyperoxic hypercapnic gas mixture and
administration of nicotinamide has been shown to result in a significantly improved tumor …

Purpose: We have developed an enhanced approach to measuring regional oxygen tension
(pO2) dynamics in tumors. The technique is demonstrated in a group of 8 Dunning prostate …

Purpose: In an effort to improve radiotherapy treatments, methods aimed at increasing the
quantity of oxygen delivered to tumors were investigated. The aim of this study was to …

Purpose To examine, using blood oxygen level dependent (BOLD) MRI and EPR oximetry,
the changes in oxygenation of intracranial tumors induced by carbogen breathing. Materials …

The effects of insulin on tumor oxygenation, perfusion, oxygen consumption, and radiation
sensitivity were studied on two different mouse tumor models (TLT, a liver tumor, and FSAII …
