Abstract:Purpose
The aim of the study was to evaluate the role of pseudo-continuous ASL-perfusion (pCASL-perfusion) in preoperative assessing of cerebral glioma grades.
Methods
The study group consisted of 253 patients aged 7 to 78 years with supratentorial gliomas (65 had low-grade gliomas (LGG), 188 – high-grade gliomas (HGG)). Maximal tumor blood flow (maxTBF) in small ROIs (20 mm2 ± 10 mm2) were evaluated by subsequently normalized tumor blood flow (nTBF) calculation which was compared with normal appearing white… Show more
