Steady state blood volume (SS-CBV) mapping using the blood pool agent ferumoxytol as an MRI contrast agent is feasible in brain tumors and other intracranial pathologies. It allows high resolution, distortion free blood volume maps, which can be a useful MRI tool to improve diagnosis and assessment of response to therapy. Ferumoxytol dose and MRI sequences may be optimized for various clinical applications.
