Evaluation of Uterine Tumor Angiogenesis with Quantitative Magnetic Resonance Imaging Perfusion Parameters

: The development and metastasis of uterine tumors depend highly on tumor angiogenesis. Multiphase dynamic contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging can quantitatively describe the hemodynamic changes of uterine tumors based on a variety of tracer kinetic models and time-signal curves and by simulating the distribution of contrast inside and outside the blood vessels. Functional parameters can accurately and noninvasively assess tumor angiogenesis. It provides a non-invasive functional evaluation method for the differential diagnosis,staging,response evaluation,and prognostic prediction of uterine tumors.
