Brief summary in lay language

Mesoscopic Imaging means that the microstructure of the brain can be investigated by Magnetic Resonance Imaging, although the resolution of the images is in the range of millimeters instead of micrometers. The MR investigation itself is prolonged for about 10 minutes and contains the routinely performed contrast application. This method is to be applied to human brain tumours to find out, whether a tumour progression or a recurrent tumour can be earlier detected than by standard MR imaging.

Brief summary in scientific language

Mesoscopic Imaging shall be applied to human brain tumours to investigate the microscopic behaviour of tumour growth. The aim is to detect a tumour infiltration earlier than by standard imaging. In a first step, patients with gliomas shall be investigated in advance to a stereotactic biposy. The tumour borders of the histology and the mesoscopic metrics (e. g. extra-axial diffusivity and capillary size) will be compared for a differentiation of patterns of tumour growth. In a second step, patients will receive follow-up investiations to find out, whether a recurrent tumour can be earlier detected by mesoscopic imaging than by standard MR imaging.

Interventions, Observational Groups

Arm 1:
In this single arm study, mesoscopic imaging of gliomas wil be performed before stereotactic biopsy. Tumour borders from histology will be compared to mesoscopic metrics (extraaxial water and vessel size) to find out, how tumour infiltration changes those parameters (primary endpoint). In the follow-up, mesoscopic imaging will be performed in a 3-monthly interval. In case of a tumour progression according to RANO criteria (secondary endpoint) it will be analysed, whether mesoscopic imaging was able to detect progessive disease earlier than standard MR imaging.

Endpoints

Primary outcome:
Stereotactic biopsy: comparison of histologically proven infiltration and mesoscopic parameters
Secondary outcome:
Tumour progression according to RANO criteria within the 3-monthly follow-up investigations. The time point of progressive disease is individual for each participant.
