Abstract
Dynamic contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (DCE-MRI) is now frequently used in early clinical trial assessment of antiangiogenic and vascular disrupting compounds. Evidence of drug efficacy and dose-dependent response has been demonstrated with some angiogenesis inhibitors. This review highlights the critical issues that influence T1-weighted DCE-MRI data acquisition and analysis, identifies important areas for future development and reviews the clinical trial findings to date. © 2007 Cancer Research UK.
