Metrics and textural features of MRI diffusion to improve classification of pediatric posterior fossa tumors (2013)
Journal Article
Rodriguez Gutierrez, D., Awwad, A., Meijer, L., Manita, M., Jaspan, T., Dineen, R. A., …Auer, D. P. (in press). Metrics and textural features of MRI diffusion to improve classification of pediatric posterior fossa tumors. American Journal of Neuroradiology, 35(5), https://doi.org/10.3174/ajnr.A3784

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Qualitative radiologic MR imaging review affords limited differentiation among types of pediatric posterior fossa brain tumors and cannot detect histologic or molecular subtypes, which could help to stratify treatment. This st... Read More about Metrics and textural features of MRI diffusion to improve classification of pediatric posterior fossa tumors.

The role of the WNT/β-catenin pathway in central nervous system primitive neuroectodermal tumours (CNS PNETs) (2013)
Journal Article
Rogers, H., Ward, J., Miller, S., Lowe, J., Coyle, B., & Grundy, R. G. (2013). The role of the WNT/β-catenin pathway in central nervous system primitive neuroectodermal tumours (CNS PNETs). British Journal of Cancer, 108, https://doi.org/10.1038/bjc.2013.170

Background: Central nervous system primitive neuroectodermal tumours (CNS PNETs) are embryonal tumours occurring predominantly in children. Current lack of knowledge regarding their underlying biology hinders development of more effective treatments...

Serial MR diffusion to predict treatment response in high-grade pediatric brain tumors: a comparison of regional and voxel-based diffusion change metrics (2013)
Journal Article
Rodriguez Gutierrez, D., Manita, M., Jaspan, T., Dineen, R. A., Grundy, R. G., & Auer, D. P. (in press). Serial MR diffusion to predict treatment response in high-grade pediatric brain tumors: a comparison of regional and voxel-based diffusion change metrics. Neuro-Oncology, 15(8), https://doi.org/10.1093/neuonc/not034

Background

Assessment of treatment response by measuring tumor size is known to be a late and potentially confounded response index. Serial diffusion MRI has shown potential for allowing earlier and possibly more reliable response assessment in a...
