Core Tip |
In a genetic model of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma, clinically translatable, quantitative magnetic resonance imaging methods of T2, glycosaminoglycan chemical exchange saturation transfer, and apparent diffusion coefficient mapping were effective in non-invasively characterizing the treatment effects of pulsed focused ultrasound treatment. Pulsed focused ultrasound treatment has already been shown to improve survival for patients with pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma in an early clinical trial, and these complimentary magnetic resonance imaging methods could help to advance this promising therapy in larger clinical trials. |
