MRI scan to predict brain tumor behavior
Part of Cancer clinical trials.
This study looks at whether MRI scans can predict how a type of brain tumor called glioma will behave. It may help doctors plan better treatment in the future.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have been newly diagnosed with a glioma (a type of brain tumor).
- You have not had radiation or chemotherapy before your surgery.
- You had an MRI scan at the study hospital before your surgery.
- Your surgery or biopsy was done within 3 weeks after that MRI.
- Your tumor tissue was confirmed as glioma by a pathologist.

This study uses a special MRI technique to look at brain tumors before surgery. It may help doctors tell if a tumor is more or less aggressive, which can guide treatment decisions.
This study uses brain MRI images and tumor tissue to predict the tumor’s molecular (cell-level) features in people with glioma. It may help doctors better understand glioma biology and plan care based on noninvasive imaging plus lab testing.
This study uses MRI scans to look for signs of brain tumour activity without needing additional surgery. If you are already having brain surgery, the researchers will compare the MRI images with the tumour tissue to better understand the cancer.
This study uses special MRI scans to better “characterize” (study) gliomas, a type of brain tumor, using information from your brain tissue. You may be eligible if you’re an adult with a suspected or confirmed glioma and you already need a biopsy or surgery.
This trial uses a special MRI scan to study the genetics of gliomas (a type of brain tumor). It may help doctors better understand your tumor and choose the right treatment. You can join if you have a suspected or confirmed low- or high-grade glioma that still has a measurable tumor after surgery.
This study uses an advanced MRI scan to help doctors tell the difference between radiation scar (radiation necrosis) and returning glioma (recurrent glioma) after prior treatment. It may help guide the next steps for care if you have a new or changing brain lesion.
