The objective of our study is to investigate whether
amide proton transfer (APT) imaging can be used for
monitoring treatment responses of the lung cancer in
chemotherapy. We compared temporal changes of APT signal
in a non-small cell lung carcinoma with and without
erlotinib which is a small molecule epidermal growth
factor receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitor in mice.
