Improved repeatability of dynamic contrast‐enhanced MRI using the complex MRI signal to derive arterial input functions: a test‐retest study in prostate cancer patients

PURPOSE: The arterial input function (AIF) is a major source of uncertainty in tracer kinetic (TK) analysis of dynamic contrast‐enhanced (DCE)‐MRI data. The aim of this study was to investigate the repeatability of AIFs extracted from the complex signal and of the resulting TK parameters in prostate...
