Overview
PET/SPECT may be helpful in the differentiation of astrocytoma grading. Finding on PET/SPECT suggestive of low grade astrocytoma is hypometabolic mass and finding on PET/SPECT suggestive of high grade astrocytoma is hypermetabolic mass.
Other Imaging Findings
PET/SPECT may be helpful in the differentiation of astrocytoma grading.
- Finding on PET/SPECT suggestive of low grade astrocytoma is hypometabolic mass.
- Finding on PET/SPECT suggestive of high grade astrocytoma is hypermetabolic mass.
