The purpose of this pilot study was to investigate the
role of Nested Model Selection (NMS) technique in
Dynamic Contrast Enhanced MRI (DCE-MRI) data analysis
for predicting patient survival. This study investigates
the predictive power of different permeability
parameters from different nested models for survival of
patients with Glioblastoma Multiforme. 20 treatment
nave patients with GBM were studied. A Cox proportional
hazards regression (CPHR) model was used to analyze the
survival time of the patients. This study suggests an
association between Ktrans, Kep and Ve of model 3 and
the patient survival that may be of considerable
clinical importance.
