Tumor Discovery CE-SWI in desmoid fibromatosis assessment

Figure 1. Comparison between contrast-enhanced susceptibility-weighted imaging (CE-SWI) (superior rows) and T2-STIR images (inferior rows) and
their corresponding intensity histograms in a patient with desmoid fibromatosis undergoing treatment across 4-time points. The images from left to right
demonstrate enhancement reduction and increased T2-hypointensity due to collagenization, as seen in responsive tumors. CE-SWI detected a more
significant amount of voxels above the 90 percentile (right side of the histogram) relative to T2, while T2 demonstrated a higher detection of voxels below
th
the 10 percentile (left side of the histogram) than CE-SWI.
