Overview
Other diagnostic studies for glioma include biopsy, which demonstrates immature glial cells resembling astrocytes, oligodendroglia, or undifferentiated cells with atypia and mitoses.
Other Diagnostic Studies
Other diagnostic studies for glioma include biopsy, which demonstrates immature glial cells resembling astrocytes, oligodendroglia, or undifferentiated cells with atypia and mitoses.
- Biopsy may be done at the time of surgical resection of gliomatosis cerebri.
- Biopsy may be performed to help confirm the diagnosis of gliomatosis cerebri.
- Stereotactic biopsy is performed when lesion is not amenable to surgical resection (deeply seated tumor).
