Article Synopsis
- Proper management of adult gliomas hinges on accurate histopathological diagnosis, but the tumor's heterogeneity can result in misdiagnosis and undergrading, particularly with biopsies.
- A study of 146 patients with newly diagnosed gliomas utilized preoperative relative cerebral blood volume (rCBV) analysis alongside histopathology to evaluate predictions for overall survival and the risk of undergrading.
- Results indicated that rCBV analysis effectively stratified patients into various risk groups for survival, highlighting the potential of elevated rCBV to identify cases that might be undergraded, thus suggesting rCBV can serve as a reliable predictor of survival alongside traditional grading.
