The aim of this work was to systematically obtain quantitative imaging parameters with static and dynamic contrast-enhanced (CE) X-ray imaging techniques and to evaluate their correlation with histological biomarkers of angiogenesis in a subcutaneous C6 glioma model. Enhancement (E), iodine concentration (C I ), and relative blood volume (rBV) were quantified from single- and dual-energy (SE and DE, respectively) micro-computed tomography (micro-CT) images, while rBV and volume transfer constant (K trans ) were quantified from dynamic contrast-enhanced (DCE) planar images. C I and rBV allowed a better discernment of tumor regions from muscle than E in SE and DE images, while no significant differences were found for rBV and K trans in DCE images. An agreement was found in rBV for muscle quantified with the different imaging protocols, and in C I and E quantified with SE and DE protocols. Significant strong correlations (Pearson r &gt; 0.7, p &lt; 0.05) were found between a set of imaging parameters in SE images and histological biomarkers: E and C I in tumor periphery were associated with microvessel density (MVD) and necrosis, E and C I in the complete tumor with MVD, and rBV in the tumor periphery with MVD. In conclusion, quantitative imaging parameters obtained in SE micro-CT images could be used to characterize angiogenesis and necrosis in the subcutaneous C6 glioma model.
