Delay of Aortic Arterial Input Function Time Improves Detection of Malignant Vertebral Body Lesions on Dynamic Contrast-Enhanced MRI Perfusion

Delay of Aortic Arterial Input Function Time Improves Detection of Malignant Vertebral Body Lesions on Dynamic Contrast-Enhanced MRI Perfusion

Dynamic contrast-enhanced MRI (DCE) is an emerging modality in the study of vertebral body malignancies. DCE-MRI analysis relies on a pharmacokinetic model, which assumes that contrast uptake is simultaneous in the feeding of arteries and tissues of interest. While true in the highly vascularized br...
