DCE-MR imaging of orbital lesions: diagnostic performance of the tumor flow residence time τ calculated by a multi-compartmental pharmacokinetic tumor model based on individual factors.

Conclusion Tumor flow residence times τ of benign and malignant orbital masses are valuable in the diagnostic work-up of orbital tumors. Measures of diagnostic accuracy were superior for τ compared to ADC, Ktrans, ve, and iAUC.
