The objective of our study is to investigate whether amide proton transfer (APT) imaging can be used for monitoring treatment responses of the lung cancer in chemotherapy. We compared temporal changes of APT signal in a non-small cell lung carcinoma with and without erlotinib which is a small molecule epidermal growth factor receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitor in mice.
