BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Histogram analysis can be applied to dynamic
susceptibility contrast (DSC) perfusion MR imaging datasets and can be as effective as …

Purpose To compare routine ROI analysis and three different histogram analyses in the
grading of glial neoplasms. The hypothesis is that histogram methods can provide a robust …

Introduction Dynamic susceptibility contrast (DSC)-MRI is a perfusion technique with high
diagnostic accuracy for glioma grading, despite limitations due to inherent susceptibility …

Introduction Perfusion magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) can be used in the pre-operative
assessment of brain tumours. The aim of this prospective study was to identify the perfusion …

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Numerous different parameters measured by perfusion
MR imaging can be used for characterizing gliomas. Parameters derived from 3 different …

Introduction To assess the diagnostic accuracy of microvascular leakage (MVL), cerebral
blood volume (CBV) and blood flow (CBF) values derived from dynamic susceptibility …

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Relative cerebral blood volume (rCBV) and vascular
permeability (Ktrans) permit in vivo assessment of glioma microvasculature. We assessed …

Purpose: To retrospectively compare the diagnostic accuracy of an alternative method used
to grade gliomas that is based on histogram analysis of normalized cerebral blood volume …

BACKGROUND: DSC perfusion has been evaluated in the discrimination between low-
grade and high-grade glioma but the diagnostic potential to discriminate beween glioma …

ABSTRACT PURPOSE Accurate glioma grading is crucial for treatment planning and
predicting prognosis. We performed a quantitative volumetric analysis to assess the …
