This study investigated the influence of reference time curve determination on DSC leakage correction. Our findings suggested that the reference time curve obtained with inclusion of leaky tissue could lead a significantly different in K2, which supported that the probable error in lesion blood volume quantification with inaccurate automated segmentation process.
