Combined methods have led to further refinements with, for example, high visuospatial resolution afforded by MRI combined with metabolic information from the lesion site (measured with 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography; FDG-PET) to indicate location and malignancy of gliomas, which in turn informs radiosurgical targeting. Kapsalaki et al. (Chapter 7) consider MRS spectroscopic profiles for differentiation among ring enhancing lesions including high grade gliomas, abscesses and post-radiation necrosis. The potential for misdiagnosis of ring enhancing lesions is an important clinical concern and this overview of spectroscopic signatures associated with various candidate pathologies is a welcome contribution to the literature. In Chapter 8 Kapsalaki et al. turn to the viability of functional. | PANCREATITIS -TREATMENT AND COMPLICATIONS Edited by Luis Rodrigo Saez Pancreatitis - Treatment and Complications Edited by Luis Rodrigo Saez Published by InTech Janeza Trdine 9 51000 Rijeka Croatia Copyright 2012 InTech All chapters are Open Access distributed under the Creative Commons Attribution license which allows users to download copy and build upon published articles even for commercial purposes as long as the author and publisher are properly credited which ensures maximum dissemination and a wider impact of our publications.
