Area of Science:

  • Biomedical Engineering
  • Radiology
  • Oncology

Background:

  • Early assessment of tumor therapeutic response is crucial for precision medicine, optimizing treatments and reducing toxicity.
  • Diffusion MRI (dMRI) shows promise but has limited predictive accuracy due to unspecific sensitivity to pathological changes.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To introduce EXCHANGE, a novel quantitative dMRI method for simultaneous mapping of cell size, density, and transcytolemmal water exchange.
  • To evaluate the comprehensive microstructural characterization of tumors at the cellular level.

Main Methods:

  • Developed EXCHANGE (MRI of water Exchange, Confined and Hindered diffusion under Arbitrary Gradient waveform Encodings), a quantitative dMRI technique.
  • Validated the method using numerical simulations, in vitro cell experiments, and in vivo animal studies.
  • Implemented EXCHANGE in breast cancer patients undergoing neoadjuvant chemotherapy.

Main Results:

  • EXCHANGE accurately estimated mean cell size, density, and water exchange rate constants in simulations and in vitro experiments.
  • In vivo animal studies demonstrated EXCHANGE's potential for monitoring tumor treatment response.
  • Clinical implementation in breast cancer patients confirmed the feasibility of assessing therapeutic response.

Conclusions:

  • The proposed EXCHANGE method provides rich microstructural information for comprehensive tumor pathology evaluation.
  • EXCHANGE offers a unique quantitative dMRI approach for monitoring tumor treatment response in clinical settings.
  • This method supports personalized medicine by enabling early and accurate assessment of treatment efficacy.
