Project Description
Dynamic susceptibility contrast material–enhanced (DSC) magnetic resonance (MR) imaging is an important functional imaging method that enables quantitative assessment of tissue hemodynamic patterns. Abnormality of blood flow, volume, and permeability is frequently observed during tumor growth, and characterization of these perfusion attributes has become clinically important for both diagnosis and therapy planning.
Objective
- Create a module for the analysis of Dynamic Susceptibility Contrast MRI (DSC)
Approach, Plan
- Start with PKmodule
- Update equations for conversion of signal to concentration
