In Vivo EPR Imaging – Topic of NIBIB Research Resource
(PI: Howard Halpern, MD, PhD)
• Long term goal - develop EPR imaging techniques which provide functional information that can be of use in designing, delivering, and assessing cancer therapy.

Biological imaging to enhance targeting of radiation therapy: oxygen imaging
• Intensity modulated radiation therapy allows sophisticated control over spatial distribution of radiation dose
• Areas of hypoxia could be given extra dose if we could identify them

Why EPR Imaging?• Spectroscopic Imaging: Specific quantitative
sensitivity to Oxygen, Temperature, Viscosity, pH, Thiol
• No water background obscures spectrum of interest (vs MRI)
• ~600 times stronger coupling to magnetic field, environment (vs MRI)
• Deep sensitivity at lower frequency (vs optical)• Noninvasive (vs probes)

EPR in vivo oximetry techniques• Localized spectroscopy with implanted
particulate probes (Dartmouth)
• Spectroscopic imaging with stepped fixed gradients, water soluble probes– CW (Chicago, OSU, Aberdeen, L’Aquila)– pulsed (NCI, Chicago)
• OMRI (NCI, Aberdeen)– dynamic nuclear polarization using EPR spin
probes

EPRI is not identical to MRI:
• Relaxation times ~10-6 as long
• pulsed gradient techniques not applicable
• FID correspondingly short → demanding of pulsed measurement techniques π/2 pulse ~50 ns long, FID lasts few μs
• have to introduce spin probe – no endogenous signal
• frequency ~660 times higher for given field (or, field 660 times lower for given frequency)

Spectral-spatial projection(a) With no gradient, a field sweep integrates over all spatial locations. This is a pure spectral projection.
(b) A gradient along the x direction couples the spatial and spectral coordinates (the spectrum is shifted linearly with position).
(c) A field sweep now corresponds to a projection along a direction rotated in the spectral-spatial plane. Larger gradients correspond to larger rotation angles. Pure spatial projection would require infinite gradient.

Registration of EPR with MRI for anatomically aided analysis
Registration based on
- Fiducials
- Surfaces
- Intensity distribution
Note high intensity due to poor clearance of spin probe from tumor, and low oxygen tension in same region

Conclusions• 4D EPR Images can be obtained with ~1 mm spatial
resolution and ~1.5mG (~3 torr pO2) spectral resolution
• Preliminary images of increased and decreased regional oxygenation levels following radiation + adeno-EGR-TNF anti-vascular therapy have been seen.
• These images may have potential for biologically-based planning and assessment of radiation therapy
• Registration of these functional images with anatomic images such as MRI is key to accurate interpretation and to eventual clinical applications
