Description

The authors report the comparison of different perfusion imagery modalities for patients suffering form glioblastomas and included in a phase-1 clinic trial comprising conformational radiotherapy concomitant with the use of a farnesyl-transferase inhibitor (tipifarnib). With these different techniques, perfusion MRI and perfusion positron emission tomography, the authors made respectively a qualitative and quantitative assessment of the tumour vascularisation.
