BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Increased contrast enhancement has been used as a
marker of malignant transformation in low-grade gliomas. This marker has been found to …

In this study, we investigated the prognostic value of MRI contrast enhancement (CE) at the
time of histological diagnosis specifically in a selected population of WHO grade II gliomas …

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: For patients with malignant gliomas, clinical data—
including age, perioperative Karnofsky Performance Status (KPS), and tumor resection …

Background Noninvasive preoperative prediction of histological grading is essential for
clinical management of cerebral glioma. Purpose This study aimed to investigate the …

Objective Magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS) is a powerful tool for preoperative
grading of gliomas. We performed a meta-analysis to evaluate the diagnostic performance of …

Object The accurate diagnosis of World Health Organization Grades II and III gliomas is
crucial for the effective treatment of patients with such lesions. Increased cell density and …

MRI grading of grade II and III gliomas may have an important impact on treatment
decisions. Occasionally, both conventional MRI (cMRI) and histology fail to clearly establish …

Purpose We evaluated differentiations in gadolinium contrast enhancement (CE) between
low-grade WHO° II and high-grade WHO° III gliomas in conventional MRI, which have been …

BACKGROUND: Magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS) is an imaging diagnostic method
based that allows non-invasive measurement of metabolites in tissues. There are a number …

Background. The recognition of anaplastic foci within low-grade gliomas is of extreme
importance in patients under follow-up for Grade II gliomas. We present the algorithm of MR …
