Preoperative glioma grading by MR diffusion and MR spectroscopic imaging

Conclusion DW-MRI had higher sensitivity, specificity and accuracy than cMRI and MRS in glioma grading while MRS is more accurate than ADC value in assessing peri-tumoral infiltration based on high metabolite ratios in peri-tumoral tissue for anaplastic glioma and GBM, but there were no statistically significant differences between high grade groups.
