Study Summary

This is a non-randomized, purely observational, feasibility study to detect metabolic changes in patients with brain malignancy using a novel hyperpolarized \[1-13C\]pyruvate MRSI.

Primary Outcome

Measurement of the ratio of metabolic products, \[1-13C\]lactate and 13C-bicarbonate, from hyperpolarized \[1-13C\]pyruvate will be used as an index of metabolic balance between glycolytic pathway and mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation.
