Published in: Radiology. Imaging cancer (2020)

Endogenous CEST MRI offers valuable, potentially unique information in brain tumors, but its diagnostic accuracy remains incompletely known. Further research is required to assess the method's role in support of molecular genetic diagnosis, to investigate its use in the posttreatment phase, and to compare techniques with a view to standardization.Keywords: Brain/Brain Stem, MR-Imaging, Neuro-OncologySupplemental material is available for this article.© RSNA, 2020.
