Background Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and amino acid positron-emission tomography
(PET) of the brain contain a vast amount of structural and functional information that can …

OBJECTIVE Recent studies have shed light on the molecular makeup of diffuse intrinsic
pontine gliomas and led to the identification of potential treatment targets for these lesions, …

BACKGROUND: The feasibility and safety of stereotactic biopsy for brainstem tumors (BSTs)
are controversial. Although magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) has been reported as the …

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate an integrated battery of preoperative functional magnetic resonance
imaging (fMRI) tasks developed to identify cortical areas associated with tactile, motor, …

Purpose The follow-up of glioblastoma patients after radiochemotherapy with conventional
MRI can be difficult since reactive alterations to the blood–brain barrier with contrast …

Background Terminology to describe extent of resection in glioblastoma is inconsistent
across clinical trials. A surgical classification system was previously proposed based upon …

The aim of this study was to investigate the potential of O-(2- 18 F-fluoroethyl)-l-tyrosine ( 18
F-FET) PET for differentiating local recurrent brain metastasis from radiation necrosis after …

Background The aim of this study was to investigate the potential of dynamic O-(2-[ 18 F]fluoroethyl)-L-tyrosine
( 18 F-FET) PET for differentiating local recurrent brain metastasis from …

Background The aim of this study was to investigate the potential of combined textural feature
analysis of contrast-enhanced MRI (CE-MRI) and static O-(2-[ 18 F]fluoroethyl)-L-tyrosine (…

In patients with low-grade glioma (LGG) of World Health Organization (WHO) grade II, early
detection of progression to WHO grade III or IV is of high clinical importance because the …
