ASL in Brain Metastasis MRI Following Gamma Knife Treatment
ASL in Diagnostics of Tumor Progression Versus Radionecrosis in Brain Metastasis Following Gamma Knife Treatment.
About This Trial
Arterial spin labeling (ASL) is a non-invasive MRI technique that could help the radiologists to distinguish brain metastasis progression versus radionecrosis following gamma-knife treatment. The primary target of the study is to establish the diagnostic performances (specificity, sensitivity) of quantitative measures of ASL in brain metastases suspected of progression/radionecrosis after GK treatment
Who May Be Eligible (Plain English)
Who May Qualify:
- Brain metastasis from histologically proven tumor
- GK treatment within 4 month prior to the inclusion
- Lesions suspected of progression/ radionecrosis :
i.e.≥ 25% of the size progression
- Lesion size: gadolinium enhanced part of the tumour ≥1 cm
Who Should NOT Join This Trial:
- Pregnancy
- Medical history of primitive brain tumour
- MRI incompatibility/ medical history of contrast agent allergy
- Claustrophobia
- Patient unable to consent
- Epilepsia/recent stroke
- Patients participating in other studies
- Patients without health care insurance
Always talk to your doctor about whether this trial is right for you.
