GlucoCEST is an MRI contrast enhancement technique sensitive to the concentration of sugar in the tissue. Because of a difference in metabolism, it is thought that tumors consume more sugar than normal tissue. However, glucose metabolism is complex and depends on many processes, which are all important to understand the origin of the measured signal. To achieve this goal we apply here a process analysis method to a deterministic system describing the metabolism of glucose in the tissue.
