The objective is to investigate whether amide proton transfer (APT) imaging is useful for evaluation of anticancer treatment responses in chemotherapy. We compared the temporal changes of APT signal with the different treatment strategies using two new drugs, administered individually or in combination, in a mouse model of medullary thyroid carcinoma.
