Preoperative Texture Analysis Using <sup>11</sup>C-Methionine Positron Emission Tomography Predicts Survival after Surgery for Glioma

Preoperative Texture Analysis Using <sup>11</sup>C-Methionine Positron Emission Tomography Predicts Survival after Surgery for Glioma

Background: Positron emission tomography with <sup>11</sup>C-methionine (MET) is well established in the diagnostic work-up of malignant brain tumors. Texture analysis is a novel technique for extracting information regarding relationships among surrounding voxels, in order to quantify t...
