Histogram analysis parameters derived from DCE-MRI in head and neck squamous cell cancer - Associations with microvessel density

摘要

Purpose: DCE MRI is a functional imaging modality, which is widely acknowledged to be linked to microvessel density in tissues. Therefore, it might be able to predict vessels in tumors. The present study sought to elucidate possible associations between microvessel density and histogram parameters in head and neck squamous cell carcinomas (HNSCC).
