Imaging of Temporal Bone Tumors
Tumoral lesions of the temporal bone are relatively rare. Cross-sectional imaging plays an important role in the description of extension of these lesions. In certain lesions, imaging characteristics are rather…
Molecular Imaging (PET) of Brain Tumors
Despite the recognized limitations of 18 Fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography (FDG-PET) in brain tumor imaging due to the high background of normal gray matter, this imaging modality provides critical information…
Magnetic Resonance Perfusion and Permeability Imaging in Brain Tumors
Recent evidence suggests that vascular permeability and the presence of vascular endothelial growth factor/vascular permeability factor (VEGF/VPF) are important mediators of brain tumor growth in addition to angiogenesis. Perfusion and…
