Magnetic resonance spectroscopic imaging.

Gliomas are infiltrative primary brain tumors that are extremely heterogeneous in terms of both their imaging characteristics and response to therapy. Anatomic magnetic resonance (MR) images are limited in terms of their ability to evaluate the spatial extent of the lesion and to distinguish recurre...
