BackgroundThe extent of tumor resection (EOTR) calculated by enhanced T1 changes in glioblastomas has been previously reported to predict survival. However, fluid-attenuated inversion recovery (FLAIR) volume may better represent tumor burden. In this study, we report the first assessment of the dynamics of FLAIR volume changes over time as a predictive variable for post-resection overall survival (OS).
