In this study, the preliminary results indicate that the
multi-parametric MR imaging technique is feasible to
identify the GBM in rats at early stage. Compared to the
traditional imaging sequences, each sequence of our
multi-parametric imaging protocol, such as spiral DWI,
VDS-DWI, DCE-MRI and CE-T1W, enables discrimination of
the early stage GBM from post-injury brain edema. For
VDS-DWI, the increase of SNR and removal of distortion
can be also obtained in GBM animal model in our study.
The multi-parametric imaging techniques might be an
alternative imaging approach to detect lesions no matter
in brain or other organs at clinically.
