Abstract:Objective To evaluate the application of uniting 1H-MRS and DTI in pathological grade and invasiveness of brain glioma. Methods The 55 cases of glioma confirmed by postoperative pathology were divided into high and low grade groups,and the difference of the tumor parenchyma 1H-MRS ratio and every parameter of DTI was analyzed between inter-groups and intra-groups. Results The Cho/ Cr,Cho/NAA ratios between high and low grade glioma parenchyma area have significant differences and correlation ( P <0.01). The FA and rFA also have significant differences and correlation( P <0.01). Conclusion The Cho/Cr,Cho/NAA ratios,FA and rFA provide an important reference for preoperative grading of brain gliomas.
