This lecture discusses the heuristic and quantitative methods for DCE-MRI data analysis, the clinical applications of both approaches in cancer imaging, the major factors that cause variabilities in the estimated heuristic metrics and quantitative pharmacokinetic parameters, and the need for standardization of data acquisition and analysis to improve reproducibility and repeatability and for consensus/guideline on whether heuristic or quantitative data analysis is the best-practice approach for a particular cancer imaging problem or topic.
