DCE-US: Evaluation of angiogenesis

Research output: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceeding › Chapter › peer-review

Abstract

In the era of personalised medicine, imaging indicators of tumour response are needed to guide patient management. Recent technical advances in DCE-US enable measurements of perfusion to quantify the microvascularisation in tumours. Reduction of vascularisation is detectable in responders after 2 weeks treatment and is correlated with progression-free and overall survival in renal and hepatocellular carcinomas. A recent multicentric study of DCE-US (539 patients) demonstrated that the area under the curve is a robust predictor of response at 1 month in several types of body tumours.
