Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

The objectives of the study are (1) to evaluate the feasibility of using a combined spin- and gradient- echo (SAGE) sequence in dynamic susceptibility contrast magnetic resonance imaging (DSC MRI) and (2) to determine quantitative estimates of vessel density and size to differentiate between areas of radiation necrosis and tumor recurrence.

Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
Experimental: Diagnostic (DSC MRI)

Diagnostic Test: Dynamic susceptibility contrast magnetic resonance imaging (DSC MRI)
A dye, known as a contrast agent, will be injected through a needle that is inserted into a vein in the arm or hand. Subsequent magnetic resonance imaging will follow.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  1. Measurement of perfusion parameter: cerebral blood volume (CBV) [Baseline to end of study (up to 2 years)]

    Measurements of cerebral blood volume (CBV) will be calculated.

  2. Measurement of perfusion parameter: vessel size index (VSI) [Baseline to end of study (up to 2 years)]

    Measurements of vessel size index (VSI) will be calculated.
