PEt imaging of high-grade glioma using 18F-fluoromethylcholine: a tool for the early detection of tumour recurrence after radiochemotherapy?

The primary aim of the study is to evaluate whether PET using 18F-fluoromethylcholine in patients who underwent neurosurgery for high-grade glioma and who present for adjuvant radiotherapy can detect an early tumour recurrence. A secondary aim of the study is to compare PET data with data provided by MRI.
