Abstract
A previous review published in 2012 demonstrated the role of clinical PET for diagnosis and management of brain tumors using mainly FDG, amino acid tracers, and 18F-fluorothymidine. This review provides an update on clinical PET studies, most of which are motivated by prediction of prognosis and planning and monitoring of therapy in gliomas. For FDG, there has been additional evidence supporting late scanning, and combination with 13N ammonia...
