High levels of 2-hydroxyglutarate (2HG) represent the hallmark metabolic alteration in mutant IDH gliomas. 2HG has been proposed as an ideal biomarker to diagnose and monitor treatment response of mutant IDH gliomas. We show here newly that 3D MR spectroscopic imaging (MRSI) of 2HG is feasible clinically in glioma patients. A novel 3D MRSI sequence was designed to edit reliably and efficiently the 2HG levels. Results obtained serially in mutant IDH glioma patients are shown.
