abstract = {PET imaging of amino acid transport using
O-(2-18F-fluoroethyl)-l-tyrosine (18F-FET) and proton MR
spectroscopy (MRS) imaging of cell turnover measured by the
ratio of choline to N-acetyl-aspartate (Cho/NAA) may provide
additional information on tumor extent of cerebral gliomas
compared with anatomic imaging; however, comparative studies
are rare. Methods: In this prospective study, 41 patients
(16 women, 25 men; mean age ± SD, 48 ± 14 y) with cerebral
gliomas (World Health Organization [WHO] grade II: 10
[including 1 patient with 2 lesions], WHO III: 17, WHO IV:
13, without biopsy low-grade: 1, high-grade: 1) were
investigated with a hybrid PET/MR scanner. Tumor extent,
spatial overlap, and the distance between the corresponding
centers of mass in 18F-FET PET and MRS imaging of Cho/NAA,
determined by simultaneously acquired, 3-dimensional
spatially resolved MRS imaging data, were compared. Results:
The average tumor volumes for 18F-FET uptake and increased
Cho/NAA were 19 ± 20 cm3 (mean ± SD) and 22 ± 24 cm3,
respectively, with an overlap of $40\%$ ± $25\%$ and
separation of the centers of mass by 9 ± 8 mm. None of the
parameters showed a significant correlation with tumor
grade. Conclusion: 18F-FET uptake and increased Cho/NAA
ratio are not always congruent and may represent different
properties of glioma metabolism. The relationship to
histologic tumor extent needs to be further analyzed.},
