چکیده

Materials and methods: The charts of 29 patients with low grade gliomas were collected. Only in 19 cases of them an NMR-spectroscopic examination was performed. Due to choline, N-acetylaspartate (NAA) and lipid content the gliomas were classified into astrocytoma WHO II or III or in low or high grade gliomas. After stereotactic biopsy or neurosurgical removal histopathological examination was performed.

P63: Automatic Detection of Glioblastoma Multiforme Tumors Using Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy Data Based on Neural Network

Inflammation has been closely related to various forms of brain tumors. However, there is little knowledge about the role of inflammation in glioma. Grade IV glioma is formerly termed glioblastoma multiform (GBM). GBM is responsible for over 13,000 deaths per year in the America. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is the most commonly used diagnostic method for GBM tumors. Recently, use of the MR...
