Differentiation of Brain Metastases due to Primary Malignancy and Glioblastomas using Dynamic Susceptibility Contrast-Enhanced MR at 3T

Purpose:To find out differences in cerebral blood volume (CBV) maps derived from dynamic susceptibility contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (DSCE-MRI) in glioblastomas and cerebral metastases. The main purpose was to compare CBV maps between metastases with different primary malignancies. Furthermore the metastasis group was compared with the glioblastoma group.Method:Conventional imaging
