Tumor Growth Assessment by Computed Tomography Perfusion Imaging (CTPI), Perfusion-Weighted Imaging (PWI), and Diffusion-Weighted Imaging (DWI) in a Rabbit Pleural Squamous Cell Carcinoma VX2-Implanted Model

摘要

BackgroundComputed tomography perfusion imaging (CTPI) and perfusion-weighted imaging (PWI) are non-invasive technologies that can quantify tumor vascularity and blood flow. This study explored the blood flow information, tumor cell viability, and hydrothoraces in a rabbit pleural VX2-implanted model through use of CTPI, PWI, and DWI.
