Conventional MRI and ¹H-MRS images of a typical glioblastoma.

Notes: (A) An isointense/hypointense lesion visible on axial T1-WI. (B) T2-WI and (C) T2-FLAIR showed a hyperintense mass with remarkable infiltration. (D) Contrast-enhanced image demonstrated clear enhancement of the tumor. (E) Cho/Cr spectra from multiple-voxel regions inside the tumor. (F) Differences in Cho/Cr ratios between high and low metabolic regions in combined high-grade gliomas and grade III and grade IV gliomas separately; all were highly significantly different (P<0.01).

Abbreviations: MRI, magnetic resonance imaging; ¹H-MRS, proton magnetic resonance spectroscopy; WI, weighted image; T2-FLAIR, T2-weighted fluid-attenuated inversion recovery; Cho, choline; Cr, creatine.
