Dynamic susceptibility contrast imaging (DSC-MRI)- left column- and dynamic contrast-enhanced MRI imaging (DCE-MRI) - right column- principles overview. Sample time series images during the passage of the contrast agent - first row- and the resulting time signal course - second row. The image processing based on the time curve allows to extract qualitative or quantitative metrics of perfusion (DSC-MRI) and/or permeability (DCE-MRI) and obtain parametric maps.
