摘要: Abstract Low-grade astrocytomas consist of those lesions classified by the World Health Organization as grade I or II and which demonstrate a predominantly astrocytic origin. They are divided into infiltrative noninfiltrative types. Imaging has potential to identify location these tumors; characterize imaging features, may allow for their identification; display relationship tumor white matter tracts eloquent cortex. Furthermore, advanced techniques be able distinguish higher from lower even predict likelihood lesion degenerating grade, on basis microvascularity, metabolic activity, chemical content tumor.
