Abstract excerpt
Mutations in isocitrate dehydrogenases 1 and 2 (IDH1 and IDH2) have been shown to be present in most World Health Organization grade 2 and grade 3 gliomas in adults. These mutations are associated with the accumulation of 2-hydroxyglutarate (2HG) in the tumor. Here we report the noninvasive detection of 2HG by proton magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS). We developed and optimized the pulse sequence with...
