Download scientific diagram | Graphs depicting three patterns of enhancement curves typically seen in breast lesions, as intensity enhancement as a function of time. A) type I – " persistent enhancing " , B) type II – " plateau " and C) type III – " washout " , with two different trends(solid and dotted line) both of which are encountered in LABC patients. The slope of the late enhancement (or washout) can be described with the washout parameter: WoP = ABS[(I 10 -I max )/(T 10 -T max )] (see text). from publication: DCE-MRI Parameters Have Potential to Predict Response of Locally Advanced Breast Cancer Patients to Neoadjuvant Chemotherapy and Hyperthermia: A Pilot Study | Combined therapies represent a staple of modern medicine. For women treated with neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NA ChT) for locally advanced breast cancer (LABC), early determination of whether the patient will fail to respond can enable the use of alternative, more beneficial | Hyperthermia, Fever and Breast Cancer | ResearchGate, the professional network for scientists.
