Study Summary

This research is being done to study the pattern of changes in various parts of the magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) studies that patients have done to help plan their radiation therapy and to evaluate the effects of therapy. The MRI of the brain is one of the major ways a participant's doctors determine how to treat a participant's tumor and if the participant's tumor is growing or not. In this study the investigators want to learn if new sequences added to the MRI that the investigators are already getting to guide partipants' radiation treatment can be analyzed to help make better treatment decisions. MRI sequences that examine the composition and structure of the tissues in the brain in a different way will be obtained. These are called called Amide Proton Transfer (APT) and Diffusion Weighted MRI. These scans will first be performed at the time of participants' radiation plannings scan done before treatment and near the end of the course of radiation treatments. This will allow the study team to investigate if there are changes in these sequences before radiation treatment and to see if using these MRI studies will allow us to better plan radiation treatments for patients in the future. This pre-treatment scan will be done at the same time as participants' standard radiation planning MRI, but will cause the scan to take longer. Participants will also have an extra MRI during one of the last 5 days of the planned 28-33 radiation treatments that are standardly used. This additional scan will not include administration of injected contrast agents, and would occur on a day when participants are also coming in for radiation. This scan will be compared with the first scan. The investigators will determine whether these changes may predict later long term outcome of treatment for patients. Patients who enroll in this study will get all of the standard therapy they would get for their tumor whether or not they participate in this study. There is no extra or different
