Multimodality assessment of brain tumors and tumor recurrence.
Neuroimaging plays a significant role in the diagnosis of intracranial tumors, especially brain gliomas, and must consist of an assessment of location and extent of the tumor and of its biologic activity. Therefore, morphologic imaging modalities and functional, metabolic, or molecular imaging modalities should be combined for primary diagnosis and for following the course and evaluating therap...
متن کاملMultimodality-multiparametric brain tumors evaluation.
Brain tumors represent a vast group of lesions, originating from different neuronal cells with different degrees of aggressiveness. Despite some technological advances either pre or post-treatment, these tumors may share similar imaging findings and properties, rendering diagnosis/prognosis, an ambiguous process. Gadolinium-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging remains the gold standard for provi...
متن کاملMultimodality Neuroimaging in Migraine and Brain Tumors
Migraine and multiple sclerosis (MS) can both cause white matter lesions that appear similar on conventional MRI. This study aimed to compare these abnormalities, and to find anatomical biomarkers specific for migraine. Supratentorial white matter hyperintensities (WMH) of 17 migraineurs and 15 patients with MS were counted, volumetrically analyzed, and their lobar distribution assessed on flui...
متن کاملComparison of brain SPECT with 99mTc-MIBI and CT-scan in discriminating of radiation necrosis and brain tumor recurrence [Persian]
Introduction: 99mTc-MIBI has been proposed for use as an imaging agent for various tumors, including breast cancer, lung cancer, lymphomas, melanomas and brain neoplastic lesions. Brain tumors are very common and radiotherapy being major part of treatment following surgery. After radiotherapy, deteriorating clinical status can be due to either radiation necrosis or recurrent tumor. Comput...
متن کاملAutomatic Multimodality Brain Tumor Detection
Automatic detection of brain tumor is a difficult task due to variations in type, size, location and shape of tumor. A multi-modality framework for automatic tumor detection by fusing different Magnetic Resonance Imaging modalities including T1-weighted, T2-weighted, and T1 with gadolinium contrast agent. The intensity, shape deformation were extracted from each image. The Multimodal MR images ...
