Rationale and Objectives Diffusion tensor imaging has been used to characterize tumor
heterogeneity and invasion in human glioblastoma. Recently, higher order diffusion tensors …

Background. Histological behavior of glioblastoma multiforme suggests it would benefit
more from a global rather than regional evaluation. A global (whole-brain) calculation of …

OBJECTIVES: The study aims to evaluate the difference in diffusion properties between high
grade glioma and low grade glioma by measuring the total magnitude of diffusion tensor (L) …

Diffusion tensor imaging is a MRI technique that enables the measurement of the diffusion of
water in tissue in order to produce neural tract images. Advanced methods such as color …

Purpose To explore the role of Diffusion Tensor Imaging in preoperative glioma grading, as
well as in differentiation between gliomas and metastatic brain tumors. We measured …

AIM: To determine whether diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) of brain tumours can demonstrate
abnormalities distal to hyperintensities on T2-weighted images, and possibly relate these to …

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Microinvasive tumor cells, which are not detected on
conventional imaging, contribute to poor prognoses for patients diagnosed with …

Accurate diagnosis and grading of brain tumors are often crucial as the management and
prognosis substantially differ depending on the type and grade of the tumor. Diffusion tensor …

Purpose To determine if the diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) parameters fractional anisotropy
(FA) and mean diffusivity (MD) can differentiate between accompanying edema and tumor …

Purpose Diffusion Tensor Imaging (DTI) is a powerful imaging technique that has led to
improvements in the diagnosis and prognosis of cerebral lesions and neurosurgical …
