The role of [18  F]FDOPA PET as an adjunct to conventional MRI in the diagnosis of aggressive glial lesions

ConclusionDynamic [18  F]FDOPA PET provides a similar diagnostic accuracy as contrast enhancement in MRI to identify the aggressiveness of suspected glial lesions at diagnosis. Both methods, however, are complementary and [18 F]FDOPA PET may be a useful additional tool in equivocal cases.
