Detection of early changes in the post-radiosurgery vestibular schwannoma microenvironment using multinuclear MRI

Abstract Stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) is an established, effective therapy against vestibular schwannoma (VS). The mechanisms of tumour response are, however, unknown and in this study we sought to evaluate changes in the irradiated VS tumour microenvironment through a multinuclear MRI approach....
