Ktrans: transfer constant; IAUGC: initial area under the gadolinium concentration time curve; mean: group mean pretreatment value; dsd: squared root of the mean squared difference; wCV: within-patient coefficient of variation; r: individual patient repeatability; r (%) individual patient: repeatability as a percentage of the mean for an individual patient; r (%) group: repeatability for the group of patients (n=11 or 18). ICC: interclass correlation coefficient; F: ratio of between-patient variance to within-patient variance.
