The purpose of radiotherapy is to treat malignancies with the intention of destroying or inactivating cells. It is important to detect an early response of radiotherapy against tumor cells. We conducted the manganese-enhanced MRI(MEMRI) to detect radiation-induced cell cycle arrest. Mn^<2+> accumulation is decreased in radiation-exposed in-vitro/ vivo tumor cells with the cell cycle arrest. Our data provide evidence that MEMRI become a more specific in-vitro/ vivo tumor imaging of cell cycle alterations.
