摘要: Object. In this study, 1H magnetic resonance (MR) spectroscopy was prospectively tested as a reliable method for presurgical grading of neuroepithelial brain tumors. Methods. Using database tumor spectra obtained in patients with histologically confirmed diagnoses, 94 consecutive untreated were studied using single-voxel (point-resolved spectroscopy; TE 135 msec, TR 1500 msec). A total 90 diagnostic MR examinations analyzed commercially available software (MRUI/VARPRO) and classified linear discriminant analysis World Health Organization (WHO) Grade I/II, WHO III, or IV lesions. all cases, the classification results matched histopathological diagnoses that made according to criteria after serial stereotactic biopsy procedures open surgery. Histopathological studies revealed 30 I/II tumors, 29 III 31 tumors....
