Magnetic resonance fingerprinting was used to develop quantitative relaxometry maps of brain tumors (glioblastoma, metastases, and oligodendrogliomas). The relaxometry values were compared among the different tumors within the solid tumor and peritumoral regions. This study found significant differences in the relaxometry values between each tumor in both regions studied. These findings may aid in future diagnosis and grading of brain tumors, and may serve as quantitative imaging biomarkers by which early treatment can be optimized.
