Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion

  • Patient must have a known or suspected primary brain tumor with a non-enhancing component with planned standard of care surgical resection. Patients with newly diagnosed or recurrent brain tumors are eligible.
  • Tumors with non-enhancing regions will be defined as T2/FLAIR hyperintensity extending at least 0.5 cm beyond areas of enhancement as assessed by MRI.
  • Patient must be 18 years of age or younger at the time of study enrollment.
  • Patient must have measurable disease defined as tumor measurable in two perpendicular dimensions on MRI greater than 1 cm.
  • Patient must have a life expectancy greater than 8 weeks.
  • Patient must be able to undergo FET-PET/MRI without sedation.
  • Females with childbearing potential must have a negative urine β-hCG test on the day of procedure or a serum hCG test within 48 hours prior to the administration FET. Females who have not reached menarche will not require pregnancy testing.

Exclusion
