dc.description.abstractEffective transverse relaxivity of gadolinium-based contrast agents is often neglected in dynamic contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (DCE-MRI). Here, we assess time and tissue dependence of R2* enhancement and its impact on pharmacokinetic parameter quantification and treatment monitoring. Multiecho DCE-MRI was performed at 7 T on mice bearing subcutaneous TOV-21G human ovarian cancer xenografts (n 8) and on the transgenic adenocarcinoma of the mouse prostate (TRAMP) model (n 7). Subsequently, the TOV-21G tumor-bearing mice were treated with bevacizumab and rescanned 2 days later. Pharmacokinetic analysis (extended Tofts model) was performed using either the first echo signal only (standard singleecho DCE-MRI) or the estimated signal at TE 0 derived from exponential fitting of R2* relaxation (R2*- corrected). Neglecting R2* enhancement causes underestimation of Gd-DOTA concentration (peak enhancement underestimated by 9.4%–16% in TOV-21G tumors and 13%–20% in TRAMP prostates). Median Ktrans and ve were underestimated in every mouse (TOV-21G Ktrans: 11%–19%, TOV-21G ve: 5.3%–8.9%; TRAMP Ktrans: 8.6%–19%, TRAMP ve: 12%–21%). Bevacizumab treatment reduced Ktrans in all TOV-21G tumors after 48 hours. Treatment effect was significantly greater in all tumors after R2* correction (median change of 0.050 min1 in R2*-corrected Ktrans vs. 0.037 min1 in uncorrected Ktrans). R2* enhancement in DCEMRI is both time- and tissue-dependent and may not be negligible at 7 T in tissue with high Ktrans. This has consequences for the use of Ktrans and other DCE-MRI parameters as biomarkers, because treatment effect size can be underestimated when R2* enhancement is neglected.nb_NO
