Investigation of the Effect of Tissue Water Dynamics on Compartmental MRI Measurements using Contrast Enhanced Relaxometry and SPECT
Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) provides methods for characterizing tissue micro-structure using relaxation-based measurements with and without the use of contrast agents (CA). Two techniques, dynamic contrast enhanced MRI (DCE-MRI) and multiple spin-echo (MSE) imaging, often employ two-pool models...
