A New Frontier in Fighting Brain Cancer: Cutting Edge Magnetic Resonance Imaging Techniques

Of the currently available brain imaging techniques for diagnosing tumors, diffusion-weighted MRI and perfusion are cutting-edge may provide improved diagnostic capacity compared to traditional such as positron emission tomography. Moreover, they fully non-invasive avoid exposure radiation. While in general has been used research medicine decades, more recent development of multi-modal multiparametric neuro oncology holds much promise enhancement diagnosis, prognosis, patient-tailored treatments this field. This review will evaluate how these various clinical value above beyond previous techniques.
