摘要
Positive-contrast methods can augment negative-contrast methods for CMR evaluation of transplanted cell fate in vivo. This study correlated positive-contrast signal characteristics in the rabbit hind-limb with xenograft cell number (rat fibroblasts bearing endocytosed 1 mu m Bang's particles) at different stages of Gd-DTPA administration and 1mm(2) in-plane resolution (2 minute scans, 1.5 Tesla). Linear regressions modeled satisfactorily the cell number dependencies of signal-to-noise (SNR) and area-of-enhancement (R > 0.83), over approximately a 50-fold fluctuation in cell number to a lowest detected limit of 25k cells during Gd-DTPA administration. Gd-DTPA administration elevated the slopes of parameter regressions by four or more standard deviations.
