Excerpt

We used first-pass contrast-enhanced MRI to quantatively measure the myocardial Ktrans, a parameter indicating myocardial perfusion and vascular permeability, in mice with or without vasodilation. We measured a significant increase in myocardial Ktrans with vasodilation. We believe this may be the first report showing that first-pass imaging can quantify increased myocardial perfusion in mice relative to baseline. …
