DCE-MRI is used to assess tumor perfusion, microvascular
vessel wall permeability and extravascularextracellular
volume fraction. Tofts Model (TM) in Time Domain (TD) is
computationally intensive for 3D data to obtain
Pharmacokinetic (PK) map using curve fitting. The
current work involves acceleration of curve fitting
process for the computation of PK map using Frequency
Domain (FD) based TM. Current work was demonstrated on
seven breast DCE datasets. Result show reduced
computational time for estimating PK map and reduced
NRMSE values in FD as compared to TD tofts model with
respect to randomly generated ground truth and in vivo
data.
