Multimodality Statistical Model of Early Response of High Grade Glioma to Radiation Therapy
Detailed DescriptionOBJECTIVES:
I. To develop a multimodality statistical model to act as a surrogate marker scheme of early
changes in high grade glioma patients undergoing radiation therapy, using conventional MRI,
MR diffusion tensor imaging, perfusion, permeability, and spectroscopic imaging while
incorporating the radiation dose calculations delivered locally and the results of a
clinical questionnaire into the model.
II. To assess treatment response to tumor and normal tissue changes. OUTLINE: Patients
undergo multimodality MRI imaging at baseline, weeks 1, 2, 3, 5, and 6, and then 4-6 weeks
after completion of radiation therapy.
