Vessel Size Imaging (VSI) by Robust Magnetic Resonance (MR) Relaxometry: MR-VSI of Solid Tumors in Correlation with Immunohistology and Intravital Microscopy

The aim of this study was to evaluate a robust magnetic resonance (MR) vessel size imaging (VSI) method for the noninvasive assessment of mean vessel size in solid tumors in a clinical dose range of ultrasmall superparamagnetic particles of iron oxide (USPIO). Therefore, USPIO-enhanced MR-VSI was pe...
