Abstract:
Objective To investigate the value of CT perfusion imaging in quantitative monitoring on microcirculation hemodynamics,differences between tumor and normal tissues,differences between mass center and edge,and on tumour microvascular responses to anti-angiogenesis therapy. Methods Fifteen male New Zealand white rabbits were established to VX2 tumor-bearing model. The animals were divided into 2 groups,anti-angiogenesis therapy (n=11,TNP-470,20 to 30 mg/kg),and control (n=4). DEC-CT scanning (80 kV,120 mA,20 cm VOF) was performed at 1 week after tumor implantation,1 week after anti-angiogenesis therapy,and 2 week after anti-angiogenesis therapy. Perfusion parameters,including blood flow (BF),blood volume (BV),mean transit time (MTT),and permeability surface (PS) were calculated for tumor mass,tumor edge,tumor center and normal tissue. Results Significant differences of the average values were observed in BF,PS and MTT between tumor and normal tissue [149.32?30.99 vs 32.18?4.10 ml/(100 g?min),28.24?5.15 vs 11.88?0.71 ml/(100 g?min),2.79?0.66 vs 6.57?0.90 s,P
