Sixteen mice bearing grafted fibrosarcoma were treated with electrotransfer without (E), after a low (B) and a high (HB) dose of bleomycin.Volume, ADC and T2 of tumors were measured before and after treatment. Bleomycin induced a volume decrease depending on the dose. ADC reached a maximum at 24 and 10 hrs for B and HB group respectively. T2 was increased during a few hours after application of electric field in the three groups.
