Method for Quantitative Monitoring of In Vivo Tumor Oxygenation
Invention type: Technology
/
Case number: #19207JQ
An oxygen sensor is provided for measuring a dissolved oxygen concentration when deployed or implanted at a tissue site. The oxygen sensor includes a solid-state contrast agent for oxygen. The oxygen sensor is configured to indicate the dissolved oxygen concentration of a tissue when subjected to a magnetic resonance-based method. The oxygen sensor may be used to map tumor oxygenation levels and for adaptive planning in brachytherapy.
