NCT ID NCT03684109

First seen Apr 26, 2026 · Last updated May 07, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This study tests a new MRI technique to measure a chemical called 2HG in brain tumors (gliomas) without needing surgery. Researchers will compare MRI results with tissue samples from 30 adults who are already scheduled for tumor removal. The goal is to improve how doctors track and understand gliomas, which could help develop better treatments.
