  • 1 Unfortunately, it is well-known that overlap between tumor grades and types is generally too great to specifically diagnose individual brain tumors with DWI alone, in adults 2 - 5 or children. (ajnr.org)
  • Cerebellar hemispheric tumors of older children and adults show similar imaging features, except that contrast enhancement is more variable than in young children. (medscape.com)
  • These criteria are intended to guide radiologists, radiation oncologists and referring physicians in making decisions regarding radiologic imaging and treatment. (bvsalud.org)
  • Due to similar morphological features of PTPR with a number of other papillary-like tumors of the pineal region, immunohistochemical analysis is crucial to its distinction. (surgicalneurologyint.com)
  • On conventional imaging, the morphological features supporting benignity include stable small nodule size, smooth demarcated margins, and calcifications. (nih.gov)
  • Semi-quantitative analysis in FDG-PET imaging is based on measurement of maximum standardized uptake values (SUVmax). (nih.gov)
  • The analysis yielded the following diffusion parameters: the rate of diffusion in the slow-diffusing compartment (D1), the rate of diffusion in the fast-diffusing compartment (D2) and the volume fraction occupied by the slowdiffusing compartment, or cellular space (CVF). (tmc.edu)
  • Routine imaging parameters fail to diagnose these responses early on. (amsterdamumc.org)
  • The most commonly used agents are gadolinium derivatives, which have magnetic properties that affect proton relaxation times. (msdmanuals.com)
  • Secondary, or metastatic, brain tumors are about four times as common as primary brain tumors, with about half of metastases coming from lung cancer. (wikipedia.org)
  • Primary brain tumors occur in around 250,000 people a year globally, and make up less than 2% of cancers. (wikipedia.org)
  • Primary and secondary brain tumors present with similar symptoms, depending on the location, size, and rate of growth of the tumor. (wikipedia.org)
  • If a Wilms tumor is suspected or if the primary tumor is histologically confirmed, it should be staged by using CT or MRI. (medscape.com)
  • The primary tumors were delineated pre- and post-treatment. (amsterdamumc.org)
