Overview
Other imaging studies for high-grade gliomas include PET scan (markedly decreased accumulation of [18F]-fluorodeoxyglucose) and bone scan (metastasis to bones).[1]
Other Imaging Findings
1. PET
Other imaging studies for high-grade gliomas include PET scan, which demonstrates markedly decreased accumulation of [18F]-fluorodeoxyglucose (glucose hypometabolism).[1]
2. Bone Scan
Bone scan may be performed to detect metastases of gliomatosis cerebri to bones.
