To test the hypothesis that a non-invasive dynamic contrast enhanced MRI (DCE-MRI) derived interstitial volume fraction (ve) and/or distribution volume (VD) were correlated with tumor cellularity in cerebral tumor. T1-weighted DCE-MRI studies were performed in 18 athymic rats implanted with U251 xenografts. After DCE-MRI, sectioned brain tissues were stained with Hematoxylin and Eosin for cell counting. Using a Standard Model (SM) analysis and Logan graphical plot, DCE-MRI image sets during and after the injection of a gadolinium contrast agent were used to estimate the parameters plasma volume (vp), forward transfer constant (Ktrans), ve, and VD. Mean parameter values in regions where the SM was selected as the best model were: (mean ± S.D.): vp = (0.81±0.40)%, Ktrans = (2.09±0.65) ×10−2 min−1, ve = (6.65±1.86)%, and VD = (7.21±1.98)%. The Logan-estimated VD was strongly correlated with the SM’s vp+ve (r = 0.91, p < 0.001). The parameters, ve and/or VD, were significantly correlated with tumor cellularity (r ≥ −0.75, p < 0.001 for both). These data suggest that tumor cellularity can be estimated non-invasively by DCE-MRI, thus supporting its utility in assessing tumor pathophysiology.
