Abstract | Background: Longitudinal monitoring of potential radiotherapy treatment effects can be determined by dynamic contrast-enhanced ultrasound (DCE-US). Purpose: To assess functional parameters by means of DCE-US in a murine subcutaneous model of human prostate cancer, and their relationship to dose deposition and time-frame after treatment. A special focus has been placed to evaluate the vascular heterogeneity of the tumor and on the most suitable data analysis approach that reflects this heterogeneity. Material and methods: In vivo DCE-US was acquired 24 h and 48 h after radiation treatment with a single dose of 7.5 Gy and 10 Gy, respectively. Tumor vasculature was characterized pixelwise using the Brix pharmacokinetic analysis of the time-intensity curves. Results: Longitudinal changes were detected ( P < 0.001) at 24 h and 48 h after treatment. At 48 h, the eliminating rate constant of the contrast agent from the plasma, k Conclusion: DCE-US has been shown to detect vascular changes at a very early stage after radiotherapy, which is a great advantage since DCE-US is non-invasive, available at most hospitals, and is low in cost compared to other techniques used in clinical practice. |
