MRI assessment of treatment delivery for interstitial photodynamic therapy of high ‐grade glioma in a preclinical model

ConclusionDiffusion and perfusion MRI revealed histological lesions. Interstitial PDT (iPDT) induced specific lesions in the tumor tissue, which were observed with MRI and confirmed by histopathological analysis. Thus, MRI may provide a non‐invasive and reliable tool to assess treatment outcomes after PDT. Lasers Surg. Med. © 2017 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
