We applied a set of hierarchical tracer kinetic models
to DCE-MRI data acquired prior to patient treatment in
cervical cancer patients. This study identified
contiguous regions where given kinetic models were
optimal and identified that high volume fraction
reflecting tissue enhancement best described by Tofts
model correlated with tumor stage.
