abstract = {High-grade gliomas (HGGs) are the most common primary
malignant tumors of the brain, with glioblastoma (GBM)
constituting over $50\%$ of all the gliomas in adults. The
disease carries very high mortality, and even with optimal
treatment, the median survival is 2-5 years for anaplastic
tumors and 1-2 years for GBMs. Neuroimaging is critical to
managing patients with HGG for diagnosis, treatment
planning, response assessment, and detecting recurrent
disease. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is the cornerstone
of imaging in neuro-oncology, but molecular imaging with
positron emission tomography (PET) can overcome some of the
inherent limitations of MRI. Additionally, PET has the
potential to target metabolic and molecular alterations in
HGGs relevant to prognosis and therapy that cannot be
assessed with anatomic imaging. Many classes of PET tracers
have been evaluated in HGG including agents that target cell
membrane biosynthesis, protein synthesis, amino acid
transport, DNA synthesis, the tricarboxylic acid (TCA)
cycle, hypoxic environments, cell surface receptors, blood
flow, vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), epidermal
growth factor (EGFR), and the 18-kDa translocator protein
(TSPO), among others. This chapter will provide an overview
of PET tracers for HGG that have been evaluated in human
subjects with a focus on tracers that are not yet in
widespread use for neuro-oncology.},
