Clinical Review of Computed Tomography and MR Perfusion Imaging in Neuro-Oncology.
Clinical Review of Computed Tomography and MR Perfusion Imaging in Neuro-Oncology. Radiologic clinics of North America Trinh, A., Wintermark, M., Iv, M. 2021; 59 (3): 323–34Abstract
Neuroimaging plays an essential role in the initial diagnosis and continued surveillance of intracranial neoplasms. The advent of perfusion techniques with computed tomography and MR imaging have proven useful in neuro-oncology, offering enhanced approaches for tumor grading, guiding stereotactic biopsies, and monitoring treatment efficacy. Perfusion imaging can help to identify treatment-related processes, such as radiation necrosis, pseudoprogression, and pseudoregression, and can help to inform treatment-related decision making. Perfusion imaging is useful to differentiate between tumor types and between tumor and nonneoplastic conditions. This article reviews the clinical relevance and implications of perfusion imaging in neuro-oncology and highlights promising perfusion biomarkers.
