Abstract
Non-response to induction chemotherapy (IC) occurs in 30% of head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) and has been predicted by tumor plasma flow (Fp) derived by perfusion computed tomography. The present study was designed to test whether baseline tumor Fp determined by dynamic contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (DCE-MRI) would predict IC response.
