Prognostic value of DCE-CT-derived blood volume and flow compared to core biopsy microvessel density in patients with metastatic renal cell carcinoma

Abstract Background Angiogenesis is prominent in metastatic renal cell carcinoma (mRCC). We compared two angiogenesis assessment methods: dynamic contrast-enhanced computed tomography (DCE-CT)-derived blood volume (BV) and blood flow (BF) and core biopsy microvessel density (MVD). Methods As planned...
