Summary

This study looked at whether special brain scans (PET and CT perfusion) can predict how well the drug bevacizumab works in people with a returning brain tumor called glioblastoma. Fourteen patients were scanned before treatment to see if the images could tell who would respond to the drug. The goal was to find a better way to guide treatment decisions, not to test a new cure.
