Abstract:BackgroundEmerging evidence suggests that fasting could play a key role in cancer treatment. Its metabolic effects on gliomas require further investigation.PurposeTo design a multi‐voxel 1H/31P MR‐spectroscopic imaging (MRSI) protocol for noninvasive metabolic monitoring of cerebral, fasting‐induced changes on an individual patient/tumor level, and to assess its technical reliability/reproducibility.Study TypeProspective.PopulationMRS phantom. Twenty‐two patients (mean age = 61, 6 female) with suspected WHO gr… Show more
