Abstract: A method for assessing a tumor's response to therapy, includes providing images of a first study of a patient and images of a second study of the patient, the second study occurring after the first study and after the patient undergoes therapy to treat a tumor, each study comprising first and second types of functional magnetic resonance (fMR) images, performing a first registration in which the images within each study are registered, performing a second registration in which reference images from both studies are co-registered, segmenting the tumor in an image of each of the second registered studies; and determining that first and second fMR measure differences exist between the segmented tumor's of the first and second studies, the first fMR measure difference being obtained from the first type of fMR images, the second fMR measure difference being obtained from the second type of fMR images.
