Conventional MR imaging, with gadolinium-based contrast enhancement, is increasingly combined with advanced, functional MR imaging techniques to offer morphologic, metabolic, and physiologic information. This article provides updated recommendations to neuroradiologists, neuro-oncologists, neurosurgeons, and radiation oncologists on the practical applications of MR imaging of neoplastic CNS lesions in adults, with particular focus on gliomas, based on a review of the clinical trial evidence and personal experiences shared at a recent international meeting of experts in neuroradiology, neuro-oncology, neurosurgery, and radio-oncology.}, issn = {0195-6108}, URL = {https://www.ajnr.org/content/early/2011/10/20/ajnr.A2640}, eprint = {https://www.ajnr.org/content/early/2011/10/20/ajnr.A2640.full.pdf}, journal = {American Journal of Neuroradiology} }
