Abstract
Purpose The aim of this study was to investigate two clinically approved plasma volume expanders (dextran 70 and voluven) as macromolecular MRI-chemical exchange saturation transfer (CEST) contrast agents to assess tumor vascular properties. Methods CEST contrast efficiency of both molecules (6% w/v) was measured in vitro at various irradiation saturation powers (1-6 μT for 5 s) and pH values (range, 5.5-7.9) and the exchange rate of hydroxyl...
