MRS and 11C-methionine PET/CT in the Diagnosis of Glioma

NCT03009318 | Completed DMC

• 1 other identifier: 81171295
• Study Type: interventional
• Target: 100
• Locations: 1 country
• Sites: 1

Brief Summary

MET PET and MRS are often performed as imaging tool for the differential diagnosis of gliomas. But both techniques have limitations causing misdiagnosis; thus, the investigators tried to combine these two imaging tools to study whether the combination of MET PET and MRS could raise the diagnosis ability of the radiological diagnosis of gliomas.

Conditions

Glioma

Keywords

Glioma; Magnetic resonance spectroscopy; Methionine; PET/CT

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

• Sensitivity of the combination of MRS and 11C-MET PET/CT

  5 years

Secondary Outcomes (1)

• The relationship between 11C-MET PET/CT results and molecular pathogeneses

  5 years

Study Arms (1)

MRS imaging and 11C-MET PET/CT

OTHER

Each patient underwent both MRS and MET PET before surgery.

Other: tumors are confirmed by surgery and pathology

Interventions

tumors are confirmed by surgery and pathology OTHER

Each patient undergoes both MRS and MET PET scan before surgery. The lesion will be considered as a glioma when either MRS or MET PET results indicated the diagnosis. Pathologic diagnosis will be performed to confirm the final diagnosis.
