See full text

The present invention generally relates to methods of preselecting patients for treatment with an anti-VEGF therapy, anti-HIF-1 therapy or anti-thioredoxin therapy. Aspects of the invention combine methods of dynamic contrast enhanced-MRI and diffusion weighted-MRI for the detection of tumor histology. The methodology disclosed herein detects tissue blood volume, tumor vascularity, and abnormal capillary permeability, thereby determining tumor vascularity to determine whether a patient should be administered such therapy.
