Synopsis

MR Multitasking-based Dynamic Imaging for Cerebrovascular Evaluation (MT-DICE) technique is recently developed and has the potential to provide DCE- and leakage-corrected DSC-MRI parameters simultaneously with one 7.6-minute scan and a single-dose contrast injection. However, it remains a practical challenge to validate the technique against their respective references with repeated contrast injections in separate days. In this work, we perform a numerical simulation study to validate the accuracy of MT-DICE in the estimation of permeability and leakage-corrected perfusion metrics.
