NCIt related terms : DCE;
NCIt definition : A magnetic resonance (MR) imaging technique that allows assessment of the hemodynamic
properties of a tissue, represented by regional blood volume (vascular density), flow,
and vascular permeability (blood vessel leakiness). An intravenous contrast bolus
is injected and rapidly repeated T1 imaging is obtained. Regional increased signal
(T1 shortening) reflects both intravascular gadolinium (true perfusion), and accumulation
of gadolinium in the extravascular space (permeability).;
