We describe ICA analysis on DCE-MRI concentration data
in prostate and its utility in separating the blood
volume and permeability components and removing
artifacts, thereby improving fidelity of pK maps. The
method can also be used for appropriate pK model
selection and gain a better understanding of tumor
response to therapy.
