摘要: Anatomic medical imaging offers the ability to detect and delineate brain tumors. In addition, emerging techniques (in particular MRI variants) offer insight into aspects of tumor physiology metabolism, thus allowing characterization dysfunction, in principle, at a metabolic, cellular, vascular level. This chapter will present advances faster higher resolution magnetic resonance spectroscopic (MRSI) as probe abnormal metabolism; diffusion weighted (DWI) measure cellularity, related technique tensor (DTI) structural organization; and, perfusion permeability, vascularity an approach study angiogenesis.
