3D-micro-MR lymphangiograms with 3D-FIESTA-C visualized the relationship between the lymphatic system and tumors in mice. Two series of 3D dynamic micro-MR lymphangiograms of mice with Karpas 299 tumors (a and b; animation 3 and 4) and PT-18 tumors (c and d; animations 5 and 6) obtained with repeated 3D-fSPGR (a and c) and 3D-FIESTA-C scans (b and d) at 20 and 25 minutes postinjection of the G6 contrast agent. On micro-MR lymphangiograms with 3D-FIESTA-C, a normal lymphatic system is depicted and is superimposed on Karpas 299 tumors (arrows) (b). In contrast, in a mouse with PT-18, the opacified normal lymphatic tissue fills in around intranodal metastasis (d).
