Tumor hypoxia drives radio-resistance in Head & Neck cancer (HNC) and can guide radiation dose de-escalation. Tumor hypoxia can be imaged using 18F-fluoromisonidazole (FMISO-PET; non-standard-of-care). Because hypoxia drives glycolysis, we assessed correlatio...

Using Unbalanced Regularized Optimal Mass Transport Metrics from DCE-MRI to Classify Radiation Necrosis Versus Tumor Recurrence
Differentiating radiation necrosis (RN) from tumor recurrence (TR) after radiotherapy remains challenging using conventional MRI. We investigated dynamic contrast-enhanced MRI (DCE-MRI) analysis using unbalanced regularized optimal mass transport (urOMT) to q...
