Abstract:
What's New? The prognosis and clinical course of low‐grade gliomas (WHO grade II) seem to be unpredictable. A technique called “Dynamic O‐(2‐[ 18 F]fluoroethyl)‐1‐tyrosine ( 18 F‐FET) positron emission tomography (PET)” has identified three distinct time‐activity curve (TAC) patterns among these tumors. In this study, the authors found that each of these TAC patterns is associated with a different prognosis. TAC analysis might, therefore, be useful as an independent imaging biomarker, offering the prospect of personalized diagnostic and therapeutic strategies for grade II gliomas.
