Background This study describes imaging features of diffuse intrinsic pontine glioma (DIPG)
and correlates with overall survival (OS) and histone mutation status in the International …

The spatial complexity of highly vulnerable structures makes surgical resection of brainstem
cavernomas (BSC) a challenging procedure. Diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) allows for the …

Background Diffuse intrinsic pontine glioma (DIPG) remains a clinico-radiologic diagnosis
without routine tissue acquisition. Reliable imaging distinction between DIPG and other …

Background. Diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) and white matter tractography (WMT) are
promising techniques for estimating the course, extent, and connectivity patterns of the white …

Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) is the most aggressive astrocytoma, and therapeutic options
are generally limited to surgical resection, radiotherapy, and Temozolomide (TMZ) …

Background Pontine gliomas are the subgroup of brainstem gliomas with the worst
prognosis. Controversial treatment approaches are discussed. Patients and methods Data of …

Background The management of brainstem glioma remains controversial, with increasing
evidence supporting surgical resection as the primary treatment for a select subgroup of …

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Conventional MR imaging permits subcategorization of
brain stem tumors by location and focality; however, assessment of white matter tract …

Purpose The benefit of radical resections for glioblastoma patients remains a source of
contention in the literature. Few studies have been conducted in pediatric patients, and it is …

Object Whereas diffuse intrinsic pontine gliomas generally have a short symptom duration
and more cranial nerve involvement, focal brainstem gliomas are commonly low grade, with …
