Differential chemosensitivity of tumor components in a malignant oligodendroglioma: assessment with diffusion-weighted, perfusion-weighted, and serial volumetric MR imaging.

We report the case of malignant oligodendroglioma in a 36-year-old man who underwent diffusion-weighted, perfusion-weighted, and volumetric MR imaging before and after PCV (procarbazine, CCNU, vincristine) chemotherapy. The tumor regions exhibiting a low apparent diffusion coefficient and increased relative cerebral blood volume showed a marked response to chemotherapy and dramatic decrease in volume, whereas the remaining tumor regions showed little change. Diffusion-weighted and perfusion-weighted MR imaging may be helpful in predicting chemosensitivity of glial tumors.
