[A protocol for imaging pediatric brain tumors].
Children with malignant brain tumors undergo multicentric clinical trials to improve standards of care. The considerable variations in imaging practice can serve as confounding variables in these studies. The purpose of this report is to propose a set of standard diagnostic imaging guidelines to improve the value of imaging when used to test the efficacy of treatments in pediatric neuro-oncology.
