PROPELLER allowed simultaneous acquisition of artifact-reduced T2 - and diffusion-weighted images of multiple hepatoma-bearing rats. This technique can promote high-throughput preclinical MR research for liver cancer.
Superparamagnetic iron oxide-enhanced MR imaging could demonstrate signal recovery delay in irradiated areas of rat livers. It seems that the signal recovery delay in irradiated areas was due to SPIO-derived iron deposition. Hepatic signal recovery could be a novel diagnostic marker for delineation of irradiated areas.
Hepatic signal recovery on ferucarbotran-enhanced MRI was delayed in the context of GdCl3-induced KC damage due to increased hepatic iron deposits. Hepatic signal recovery may be used as a clinical marker of KC damage in liver disorders, including radiation-induced hepatitis.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
