Research Abstract |
The purpose of this study is to clarify the hypothesis that the frequency of tumor hypoxia influences the prognosis of malignant glioma rather than an amount of tumor hypoxia. The results revealed that sequential PET analysis using 18F-FMISO could not visualize the transient hypoxia in glioma, because it took the relatively long time for the radioactivity attenuation. However, this study achieved the establishment of hypoxia imaging in transplanted murine glioma by using electron spin resonance technique. Furthermore, it was revealed that doranidazole is a potent drug to improve the radiation efficiency against hypoxic glioma cells.
