Newly defined criteria for treatment assessment and diagnosis of tumor progression (ie, RANO [Response Assessment in Neuro-Oncology] criteria) have implemented signal alterations on T2/fluid-attenuated inversion recovery (FLAIR) sequences to changes in contrast enhancement. However, T2/FLAIR hyperintensity may be influenced by other causes (eg, radiation-induced leukoencephalopathy, peritumoral edema, gliosis). Positron emission tomography using the radiolabeled amino acid O-(2-[18F]fluoroethyl)-l-tyrosine (18F-FET-PET) may help detect the metabolically active tumor extent. We present 18F-FET-PET imaging findings in a glioblastoma patient during bevacizumab treatment suggesting an earlier diagnosis of tumor progression than magnetic resonance imaging changes, which are based on the RANO criteria.}, cin = {INM-3 / INM-4}, ddc = {610}, cid = {I:(DE-Juel1)INM-3-20090406 / I:(DE-Juel1)INM-4-20090406}, pnm = {332 - Imaging the Living Brain (POF2-332)}, pid = {G:(DE-HGF)POF2-332}, typ = {PUB:(DE-HGF)16}, pubmed = {pmid:23759368}, UT = {WOS:000336724400005}, doi = {10.2310/7290.2013.00051}, url = {https://juser.fz-juelich.de/record/134725}, }
