Study Summary

This trial studies how an imaging agent, hyperpolarized carbon C 13 pyruvate, works in diagnosing glioma in patients with brain tumors. Giving hyperpolarized carbon C 13 pyruvate before an advanced imaging technique called a magnetic resonance spectroscopic imaging (MRSI) scan may help researchers better diagnose glioma in patients with brain tumors.

Primary Outcome

The kpl values will be calculated for each biopsy site, tumor border zone, and the contralateral side.
