Overview

Other imaging studies for gliomatosis cerebri include MR spectroscopy, MR perfusion, PET scan (markedly decreased accumulation of [18F]-fluorodeoxyglucose), and bone scan (metastasis to bones).[1]

Other Imaging Findings

Other imaging studies for gliomatosis cerebri include MR spectroscopy, MR perfusion, PET scan (markedly decreased accumulation of [18F]-fluorodeoxyglucose), and bone scan (metastasis to bones).[1]


1. MR Spectroscopy

Other imaging studies for gliomatosis cerebri include MR spectroscopy. Common findings are described below:[1]

2. MR Perfusion

Other imaging studies for gliomatosis cerebri include MR perfusion. Common findings are described below:[1]

  • ​Low/normal relative cerebral blood flow (no vascular hyperplasia)

3. PET

Other imaging studies for high-grade gliomas include PET scan, which demonstrates markedly decreased accumulation of [18F]-fluorodeoxyglucose) (glucose hypometabolism).[1]

4. Bone Scan

Bone scan may be performed to detect metastases of gliomatosis cerebri to bones.
