Research Abstract |
Investigating correlation with the result of^<18> F-BPA-PET scans and a prognosis, and pathologic examination were performed to the newly diagnosed cases of malignant glioma and the existing cases. It was shown that the diagnosis of tumor malignancy was possible by the lesion/normal brain ratio. The cutoff values for distinguishing tumor recurrence and radiation necrosis were defined. Repeat PET imaging was found to be useful for evaluating changes in glioma activity with respect to the treatment received.
