2015, Magnetic Resonance ImagingCitation Excerpt :Fig. 4 displays a typical MR image sequence of (512 × 512 × 9) having 5.5 mm spacing between slices. Recent investigations reveal that 3D quantitative techniques including MR imaging are highly accurate in determining the tangible size of the tumor [25,26] and may render superior clinical palpation to predict local tumor control [27–29]. Volumetric technique called Manual Region of Interest (ROI) is commonly used for 3D quantitative assessment where tumor contours are accurately detected.
No correlation between pretreatment serum CEA levels and tumor volume in locally advanced rectal cancer patients
2012, Clinica Chimica ActaCitation Excerpt :Advances in imaging techniques have enabled the assessment of tumor volume more readily and precisely. In cervical cancer patients, a three-dimensional volume by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a highly reliable indicator of actual tumor volume and provides the closest correlation to actual tumor volume that is currently achievable in the clinical setting [6,7]. In locally advanced rectal cancer patients, pelvic MRI is a more effective modality for measuring tumor size and volume than other methods, such as pelvic CT or endoscopy, because of its distinctive tissue contrast and multiplanar imaging capability [8,9].
