This prospective study correlates DCE MRI and IVIM with breast cancer molecular subtypes by examine the differences in vascular normalization signature genes. We found molecular subtype III and VI with higher pericyte gene scores to have significantly lower perfusion related parameters, higher extracellular extra-vascular space on DCE MRI and IVIM. These associations may be used to guide anti-angiogenesis treatment for breast cancer.
