Response assessment: What we would

expect

•

T2: Reduced conspicuity

–

Loss of tumor mass

–

Reduced water content of peripheral zone

•

DCE MRI: Reduction of CM uptake

–

Decreased angiogenesis

–

... But counteracted by inflammation

•

DWI: Reduced conspicuity, increase in ADC

–

Loss of cellular density

–

... But contaminated by T2 effects
