rCBV- and ADC-based Grading of Meningiomas With Glimpse Into Emerging Molecular Diagnostics.

Journal: Basic and clinical neuroscience
Published Date: Nov 1, 2018

Abstract

INTRODUCTION: This study was conducted to grade meningiomas based on relative Cerebral Blood Volume (rCBV) and Apparent Diffusion Coefficient (ADC) to help surgeons plan the approach and extent of operation as well as decide on the need of any adjuvant radio/chemo therapy. The current and evolving genomic, proteomic, and spectroscopic technologies are also discussed which can supplement the current radiologic methods and procedures in grading meningiomas.
