Open Actively Recruiting

Simultaneous Multinuclear Metabolic MRI in Newly Diagnosed or Recurrent Glioma

About

Brief Summary

This clinical trial constructs and tests a novel multinuclear metabolic magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) sequence in patients with glioma (brain tumor) that is newly diagnosed or has come back (recurrent). This trial aims to develop new diagnostic imaging technology that may bridge gaps between early detection and diagnosis, prognosis, and treatment in brain cancer.
