Post-RT Head and Neck DCE-MRI: Association Between Mandibular Dose and ve
no inherent difference in the DCE-MRI quantitative parameter v<sub>e</sub> was observed within subject mandibles, but a significant difference was observed between v<sub>e</sub> means in high- and low-radiation-dose mandible regions. These results provide evidence of the utility of DCE-MRI to monitor mandible vasculature changes resulting from head and neck cancer radiation therapy. Monitoring post-HNC-RT mandible vasculature changes is important to initiate earlier toxicity management and ultimately improve HNC survivors' quality of life.
