Study Summary

This pilot clinical trial studies fluorine F 18 fluorodopa (18F-DOPA)-positron emission tomography (PET) in planning surgery in patients with gliomas. New imaging procedures, such as 18F-DOPA-PET scan, may help find gliomas and may help in planning surgery.

Primary Outcome

To determine the optimal PET threshold for distinguishing HGG from LGG brain tissue, receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis and the Youden's index (sum of the sensitivity and specificity - 1) will be used. The Youden's index will be calculated for each possible T/N threshold. The final ROC area under the curve (AUC) value and confidence intervals will be estimated using ROC analysis methods for clustered continuous data as described by Obychowski.

Interventions

  • PROCEDURE Computed Tomography
  • PROCEDURE Biopsy
  • OTHER Laboratory Biomarker Analysis
