To evaluate the value of length and offset varied saturation (LOVARS) in the diagnosis of gliomas, and compared with amide proton transfer (APT), We performed the study using LOVARS and APT imaging technique .And we found that APT images is useful in distinguishing low-grade and high-grade glioma, while LOVARS phase images shows better contrast between glioma and peripheral tissue, and the internal heterogeneous components of the glioma.
