DOI: 10.1093/neuonc/noaa222.701
Abstract: Abstract BACKGROUND Children with medulloblastoma cannot avoid chemoradiotherapy including craniospinal radiation, although prognosis of medulloblastoma has improved and previous studies have reported a significant risk of intellectual disturbance by these treatments. We retrospectively analysed neurocognitive… read more here.

Abstract: Scientific background/rationale: The prognosis of recurrent/refractory medulloblastoma (MB), ependymoma (EP) and atypical teratoid/rhabdoid neoplasms (AT/RT), which constitutes the majority of malignant posterior fossa tumors (MPFT) in children, remain dismal with no defined effective therapy. Current… read more here.

The Diagnostic Efficiency of Quantitative Diffusion Weighted Imaging in Differentiating Medulloblastoma from Posterior Fossa Tumors: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2022 at "Diagnostics"
DOI: 10.3390/diagnostics12112796
Abstract: Medulloblastoma (MB) is considered the most common and highly malignant posterior fossa tumor (PFT) in children. The accurate preoperative diagnosis of MB is beneficial in choosing the appropriate surgical methods and treatment strategies. Diffusion-weighted imaging… read more here.
