positron emission tomography (PET) is a valuable tool for the characterization of brain tumors in vivo. However, few studies investigated the correlation between 11C-METH PET metrics and the clinico-radiological, histological and molecular features in patients affected by lower grade gliomas (LGGs). This observational study aimed at evaluating the relationships between carbon-11-methionine PET (11C-METH PET) metrics and structural MRI imaging with histo-molecular biomarkers in patients with LGGs candidate to surgery.

Abstract
positron emission tomography (PET) is a valuable tool for the characterization of brain tumors in vivo. However, few studies investigated the correlation between 11C-METH PET metrics and the clinico-radiological, histological and molecular features in patients affected by lower grade gliomas (LGGs). This observational study aimed at evaluating the relationships between carbon-11-methionine PET (11C-METH PET) metrics and structural MRI imaging with histo-molecular biomarkers in patients with LGGs candidate to surgery.File in questo prodotto:
