Reproducibility of volume analysis of dynamic susceptibility contrast perfusion-weighted imaging in untreated glioblastomas.

Calculated in glioblastomas with a volume method, rCBVmax and CBVWM yielded good to excellent reproducibility but only fair with the hotspot method. Overall, the volume analysis offers a highly reproducible parameter, %rCBV > 2, that could be promising during the follow-up of such heterogeneous tumours.
