Summary: This study investigates the feasibility of using a multiapproach analysis to distinguish true tumor progression (TP) from pseudoprogression (PSP) in glioblastoma patients. The results suggest that three spectroscopic ratios can differentiate PSP from TP, and tumor volume at relapse is the most predictive factor in the multivariate analysis. Patients with PSP have a higher overall survival compared to TP patients.

Summary: In this study, the optimal standardized rCBV threshold for the single-dose, dual-echo protocol was determined to generate FTB maps that match those derived from the reference standard, double-dose, single-echo protocol. The results showed a strong correlation between the mean tumor sRCBV values obtained from the two protocols. The study also demonstrated that dual-echo DSC-MRI acquisitions enable robust single-dose sRCBV and FTB mapping, providing pulse sequence parameter flexibility.

Summary: Radiomics, a promising tool that extracts features from medical images, can help differentiate the progression, recurrence, pseudoprogression, and radionecrosis of glioma and glioblastoma multiforme (GBM). It can significantly impact patient care and post-treatment follow-ups.

Summary: This study aimed to investigate the diagnostic performance of different parameters derived from diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) models in differentiating tumour progression from pseudoprogression in glioblastoma patients. The results showed that multi-b DWI is a promising method for differentiating tumour progression from pseudoprogression with high diagnostic accuracy. The parameter "a" derived from the stretched-exponential model is the most promising DWI parameter for the prediction of tumour progression in glioblastoma patients.

Summary: Glioblastoma is the most frequent malignant primitive brain tumor in adults. Advanced magnetic resonance imaging techniques and radiomics analysis can help differentiate pseudoprogression from true progression, and provide predictive models for diagnosis, prognosis, and therapeutic response.

Summary: This study suggests that ALC levels before or after treatment do not predict true disease progression or pseudoprogression in GBM patients. Patients with true progression had worse overall survival compared to those with pseudoprogression. A larger sample size including CD4 cell counts may be needed to evaluate the predictive value of peripheral blood biomarkers for pseudoprogression.

Summary: Managing patients with glioblastoma requires a combination of standard therapies and innovative immunotherapies, but assessment becomes more complex with advanced MRI techniques. Identifying pseudoprogression is critical for successful patient management.

Summary: Three distinct spatial habitats based on multiparametric physiologic MRIs were identified to predict survival rates in patients with posttreatment glioblastoma. Short-term increases in hypervascular cellular habitat and hypovascular cellular habitat were significantly associated with shorter progression-free survival (PFS) after concurrent chemoradiotherapy (CCRT). Combining with clinical predictors, habitat risk score showed good predictive performance for PFS and overall survival (OS), stratifying patients into different PFS groups.

Summary: In this study, machine-learning and deep-learning models were used to differentiate pseudoprogression from true tumor progression by combining clinical data, MGMT methylation status, and radiomic features. The results showed that currently available imaging biomarkers could not reliably differentiate pseudoprogression from true tumor progression, and further collaborative efforts are needed to build more reliable models.

Summary: This study aimed to differentiate between tumor and radiation necrosis in brain metastases patients treated with stereotactic radiosurgery using MR perfusion and metabolic metrics. The results showed that relative CBV and high fractional tumor burden were the best indicators for distinguishing between tumor and radiation necrosis.

Summary: In this study, the researchers validated a multiparametric MRI model to differentiate pseudoprogression from tumor progression in glioblastoma patients. The model accurately identified pseudoprogression in 95% of cases and had an overall concordance rate of 70% with histopathology/mRANO criteria. The findings suggest that the MRI model may be helpful in clinical management and prognostication of GBM patients.

Summary: This study investigates the development of brain MRI tumor segmentation models using data mined line annotations. The results show that training models with pseudo-masks generated from line annotations and unsupervised segmentation, combined with semi-supervised learning for self-refinement, can produce accurate tumor segmentation models. The hybrid inference method combining full-image segmentation with detection plus image patch segmentation outperforms full image segmentation alone.
