Overview
Other imaging studies for high-grade gliomas include PET scan and bone scan.[1]
Other Imaging Findings

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