Co-localized tissue samples from the same regions as MRI regions of interest showed significantly lower vascularity (density of CD34 + vessels) in the core and higher T-cell infiltration (CD3 + cells) in the leading edge for ipilimumab-treated brain metastasis samples than for untreated cases and this correlated with a higher tumor ADC signal at post-treatment/preoperative MRI brain. Here, CD34 is linked to neoplasm.
