Axial transverse computerized tomography in 73 glioblastomas

H Steinhoff, T Grumme, E Kazner

    Acta Neurochirurgica
    |January 1, 1978
    PubMed
    Summary

    Computerized tomography effectively demonstrated 98% of gliomas, including glioblastomas. Glioblastomas presented as annular, nodular, or combined types, often with perifocal edema.

    Area of Science:

    • Neurology
    • Radiology
    • Oncology

    Background:

    • Brain tumors are a significant health concern.
    • Gliomas represent a major category of primary brain tumors.
    • Accurate diagnostic imaging is crucial for patient management.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To evaluate the efficacy of computerized tomography in demonstrating gliomas.
    • To characterize the imaging features of glioblastomas.
    • To assess the prevalence and grade of perifocal edema in glioblastomas.

    Main Methods:

    • Computerized tomography (CT) examination of 2,600 patients.
    • Intravenous contrast medium administration (1 ml/kg body weight) following Ambrose's method.
    • Analysis of tumor morphology and associated edema in identified glioblastomas.

    Main Results:

    • 404 patients had brain tumors, with 150 diagnosed as gliomas, including 73 glioblastomas.
    • CT demonstrated 98% of all gliomas.
    • Glioblastomas appeared as annular (55%), nodular (18%), or combined (27%) types.
    • Perifocal edema was present in 88% of glioblastomas, frequently of grade II or III.

    Conclusions:

    • Computerized tomography is highly effective for demonstrating gliomas.
    • Glioblastomas exhibit distinct imaging patterns.
    • Perifocal edema is a common finding in glioblastomas and requires careful grading.
