Table 1 Comparison of CNR between the tumor and brain regions using GEFC, GE and SE pulse sequences as well as SWI at the respective time points: 20, 120 min and 24 hrs for SE; 30, 130 min and 24 hrs for GE; 31, 131 min and 24 hrs for GEFC post iv tail injection of the targeted contrast agent

From: Comparison of T2 and T2 *-weighted MR molecular imaging of a mouse model of glioma
