Study Summary

This study aims to assess changes in vascular permeability in the brain tumor, and in the surrounding brain, due to radiation therapy, using Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI).

Primary Outcome

Fifty metastatic lesions from 21 patients received WBRT and 14 lesions from 9 patients treated by SRS were analyzed. Permeability of BTB (Blood-Tumor-Barrier) was quantified by the transfer constant, Ktrans, derived from dynamic contrast enhanced (DCE)-MRI that were acquired pre, 1-2 weeks after starting, and 1-month post-radiotherapy. A percentage volume of the BM with Ktrans \>0.005 min-1 (%Vall) was used to evaluate the extent of BTB opening pre-RT and subsequent changes after receiving radio
