Clinical Applications of Contrast-Enhanced Perfusion MRI Techniques in Gliomas: Recent Advances and Current Challenges

Figure 4

DSC-MRI (a) and DCE-MRI (b) for differentiation of GBM, PCNSL, and metastasis. rCBV maps demonstrate different characteristic features in the three distinct entities, with significantly higher rCBV value of GBM compared with metastasis and PCNSL. The value of GBM is significantly lower than metastasis and PCNSL. Reproduce with permission from Mangla et al. [118], Xing et al. [120], Zhao et al. [52], and Kickingereder et al. [121].
