Summary
This early-phase study tests a new way to take pictures of high-grade gliomas, a type of aggressive brain tumor. The method uses two special dyes to see areas where tumor cells lack oxygen or are growing quickly. Researchers hope this will help them understand why some tumors don't respond to standard treatment. The study involves 8 adults with suspected high-grade glioma who have not yet started treatment.
