Radiomics: The New Promise for Differentiating Progression, Recurrence, Pseudoprogression, and Radionecrosis in Glioma and Glioblastoma Multiforme by Mohammadreza Alizadeh, Nima Broomand Lomer, Mobin Azami, Mohammad Khalafi, Parnian Shobeiri, Melika Arab Bafrani, Houman Sotoudeh

“…Glioma and glioblastoma multiform (GBM) remain among the most debilitating and life-threatening brain tumors. Despite advances in diagnosing approaches, patient follow-up after treatment (surgery and chemoradiation) is still challenging for differentiation between tumor progression/recurrence, pseudoprogression, and radionecrosis. …”
