Impact of 18F-FET PET on Target Volume Definition and Tumor Progression of Recurrent High Grade Glioma Treated with Carbon-Ion Radiotherapy
Abstract High-precision radiotherapy (HPR) of recurrent high grade glioma (HGG) requires accurate spatial allocation of these infiltrative tumors. We investigated the impact of 18F-FET PET on tumor delineation and progression of recurrent HGG after HPR with carbon ions. T1 contrast enhanced MRI and...
