Abstract:
Modern MR imaging with advanced techniques such as diffusion, perfusion and functional imaging as well as spectroscopy have improved the characterization of brain tumors. Unlike conventional imaging providing mainly anatomical or structural information, these advanced applications give insight into the microstructure and physiology of brain tumors. Several biomarkers are available which correlate with tumor cellularity, microstructure, vascularity and metabolism. These techniques not only aid in the imaging diagnosis and treatment planning of brain tumors, but they also play a role in clinical management and monitoring treatment effect.

Radiological Investigation II: MRI and Ventilation Perfusion Scan
Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) and Ventilation Perfusion Scans are two radiological investigations that offer detailed diagnostic images of the body, particularly lung structures.
MRI
MRI uses magnetic fields and radiofrequency signals to distinguish between normal and abnormal tissues. This technology provides a more detailed diagnostic image than CT scans, enabling it to characterize pulmonary nodules, stage bronchogenic carcinoma, and evaluate inflammatory activity in...

Pulmonary Angiogram
A Pulmonary Angiogram is an invasive procedure involving injecting a contrast medium through a catheter threaded into the pulmonary artery or the right side of the heart to visualize the pulmonary vasculature. Computed Tomography (CT) scans have mainly replaced this...
