PET Imaging Technique Improves Patient Care in Pediatric Brain Cancer

Brain cancer imaging typically is done with a conventional MRI, but a new study has found that another imaging technique can provide details about a tumor’s metabolism and the extent of cancer in children with glioma. Positron Emission Tomography (PET) has been found to be more effective in monitoring cases of brain cancer, subsequently improving the quality of care for children with glioma.  Click here to read the full story.
