- Abstract:
- Background: Gliomas are a heterogeneous group of neuroepithelial tumors with many clinical manifestations and often with poor prognosis, which depends on molecular profile. Their diagnosis and treatment require a deep approach in an interdisciplinary team. Usually, medical treatment is guided by diagnostic imaging techniques. Although considered secondary to MRI in the past, recent advances such as the PET-RANO 1.0 guidelines for assessing response to tumor treatment have made nuclear medicine imaging a critical part of therapeutic decision-making. These standardized scan protocols allow for a more nuanced understanding of tumor behavior.
