文档介绍：Advances in ic resonance imaging of brain tumours
Jeremy Rees
Purpose of review Abbreviations
ic resonance imaging (MRI) of brain tumours provides ADC apparent diffusion coefficient
excellent anatomical detail of brain tumours and can also reveal DTI diffusion tensor imaging
DWI diffusion weighted imaging
the biology, cellular structure and vascular dynamics of a FLAIR fluid-attenuated inversion recovery
tumour, although the use of such features in routine clinical fMRI functional ic resonance imaging
1H-MRS proton ic resonance spectroscopy
practice has yet to be realized. In this review the latest advances iMRI intraoperative ic resonance imaging
in MRI of brain tumours are discussed and their clinical MRI ic resonance imaging
MSI ic source imaging
applications highlighted. PET positron emission tomography
Recent findings rCBV relative cerebral blood volume
WHO World anization
A large international study is underway to develop more
powerful methods for automated classification of MR spectra
# 2003 Lippincott Williams & Wilkins
based on the acquisition of large datasets of tumour spectra. 1350-7540
Diffusion weighted imaging can help in the distinction between
gliomas and abscesses, and perfusion weighted imaging can
predict response to radiotherapy in low grade gliomas as well Introduction
