| pubmed-article:7954245 | pubmed:abstractText | Adjuvant chemotherapy benefits a minority of patients with recurrent glioblastoma; a critical question therefore is how to select such responders. Metabolic reaction of the tumor, studied by positron emission tomography (PET) with [18F]-fluoro-2-deoxy-D-glucose (FDG), may be a suitable test of tumor responsiveness. In an effort to evaluate their prognostic value, the early effects of carmustine on brain and recurrent glioblastoma glucose metabolism were studied. | lld:pubmed |
