Abstract
Two sets of time course NMR data are acquired using an EPI pulse sequence in which both gradient recalled echo NMR signals and spin-echo NMR signals are acquired after bolus injection of a contrast agent. The gradient-echo signals and spin-echo NMR signals are employed to calculate rCBV maps which are corrected for contrast leakage and used as a measure of tumor angiogenesis. Both the gradient echo and spin echo signals are employed to calculate a &Dgr;R2 weighting ratio which is also a measure of tumor angiogenesis.
