Assessment of Sodium MRI at 7 Tesla as Predictor of Therapy Response and Survival in Glioblastoma Patients

The purpose of this work was to prospectively investigate sodium (23Na) MRI at 7 Tesla (T) as predictor of therapy response and survival in patients with glioblastoma (GBM). Thus, 20 GBM patients underwent 23Na MRI at 7T before, immediately after and 6 weeks after chemoradiotherapy (CRT). The median...
