About this trial

MRI-based sequences can provide non-invasive quantification of intratumoral 2-hydroxyglutarate (2HG) distribution and tumor cellularity in human gliomas and help guide the development of novel glioma therapies.

Eligibility criteria

This trial does not accept healthy volunteers

Qualifiers

Adults (≥18 year old)

Subjects with suspected or confirmed gliomas and who will have a medically indicated biopsy or resection of his/her brain lesion.

Disqualifiers

Adults unable to consent

Individuals who are not yet adults (infants, children, teenagers)

Pregnant women

Patients unable to have MRI done
