T2-weighted image with outlined tumor region of interest (row A) and corresponding maps of CBF (row B), CBV (row C), and ASL-CBF (row D, color bar of ASL-CBF is given in absolute units of milliliters per minute per 100-g tissue) of different time points during therapy. The course of therapy and time points of the images are depicted at the bottom. Changes of tumor tissue appearing in T2-weighted images and changes in tumor perfusion can be seen.

Fig 2.
Time course of ASL-CBF (A), CBF (B), CBV (C), and tumor volume (D) during and after RT. Beginning and end of RT are marked by dotted straight gray lines at time points 0 and 1.4 months. Red bold dashed curves indicate the time trend of the most statistically significant linear or quadratic model. Solid lines denote individual time course of each patient and patients who used steroids after RT are marked in blue. Box plots were overlaid to highlight the distribution of values at each time point.
