This article focuses on advanced magnetic resonance (MR) imaging techniques and how they can be used to help diagnose a specific tumor, suggest tumor grade and prognosis, follow tumor progression, evaluate tumor extension, suggest the ideal site for biopsy, and assess therapeutic response. Advanced MR imaging techniques may also help to distinguish between lesions that simulate brain tumors on conventional MR imaging studies.
本文重点介绍先进的磁共振(MR)成像技术,以及如何利用这些技术帮助诊断特定肿瘤、提示肿瘤分级和预后、跟踪肿瘤进展、评估肿瘤范围、提示活检的理想部位以及评估治疗反应。先进的MR成像技术还可能有助于区分在传统MR成像研究中类似脑肿瘤的病变。
