Departmental Oral Examination (Thesis Title: "Measurement of the Arterial Input Function from Radial MR Projections")
Event Start:
2018-04-25T12:30:00
Event Information:
The accuracy of Pharmacokinetic model fit parameters is highly sensitive to the quality of the contrast-time curves acquired in the tissue of interest and within a blood vessel feeding the tissue. The later curve is commonly referred to as the arterial input function (AIF). It is difficult to measure the AIF in pre-clinical studies in mice due to their small body size and limited number of vessels of a sufficient size. As a result, several groups will use a population averaged curve from the literature.
Event Location:
