A Study of Using Geometrically Accurate Functional MRI to Enable Personalized Radiotherapy of Glioblastoma

Overview

About this study

The purpose of this study is to create a new Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) technique with true contrast to the background reference points in functional MR images of individual patients. Functional MRI has been widely used in staging, grading and treatment response monitoring of glioblastoma.  MRI has great soft tissue and tumor tissue contrast and can assist in outlining the target. It has proven able to offer functional information such as cell density, permeability of the micro-blood vessels, and the oxygen level of the tumor.
