Eligibility

Age
18 Years to 99 Years

Inclusion criteria

Inclusion criteria: Confirmed diagnosis of glioblastoma based on histopathological or molecular analysis of biopsy after surgery, or suspected of glioblastoma based on medical imaging. • Scheduled to undergo radiotherapy or combined chemo-and radiotherapy • 18 years and older • Able to give informed consent. • Patient will undergo clinically indicated MRIs

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion criteria: A potential subject who meets any of the following criteria will be excluded participation in this study: • Inability to give informed consent • Contraindication for MRI • Brain pathology affecting CEST contrast, such as a recent stroke or previous skull radiotherapy, as determined by the principal investigators (PIs)

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Threshold on APTw-CEST images that accurately distinguishes between true progression and pseudoprogression in recently treated glioblastoma patients. The accuracy will be optimized using Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis and the Youden index.
