Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion

  • Patients with locally advanced or metastatic renal cell carcinoma.
  • Patients scheduled to undergo anti-angiogenic treatment or immunotherapy
  • Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) Status 0, 1 and 2.
  • Women of child-bearing potential must agree to undergo a urine pregnancy screening per standard Radiology departmental protocol, in place to prevent imaging of pregnant patients.

  • Ability to understand and the willingness to sign a written informed consent.

Exclusion

  • Subjects may not be receiving any other anti-angiogenic agents, at the time of enrollment.
  • Subjects must not be pregnant since pregnancy is a contraindication to administration of gadolinium-based contrast agents.
  • Any contraindication to MRI per Radiology Department's routine protocol, e.g. MRI-incompatible objects, including but not limited to medical devices (e.g. pacemakers, automated implantable cardioverter defibrillators, etc.) and other foreign bodies.
  • Known severe allergic reaction to Gadolinium-based contrast agents.
  • Patients with sickle cell disease and patients with other hemolytic anemias (low red blood count in body).
  • Patients with uncontrollable claustrophobia, severe lower back pain, and uncontrollable tremors, to the point that it would render them unable to tolerate an MRI study.
