Predictive value of multimodality MRI using conventional, perfusion, and spectroscopy MR in anaplastic transformation of low-grade oligodendrogliomas
Journal of Neuro-Oncology, 09/10/09

Hlaihel C et al. – A growth rate higher than 3 mm per year was also correlated with greater risk of anaplastic transformation. Proton magnetic resonance spectroscopy should be recommended in the follow–up of low–grade gliomas since the choline/creatine ratio can predict anaplastic transformation before perfusion abnormalities, with high positive predictive value of 83%.
