This has been well studied in adult patients, however, the biological features of Diffusion-weighting imaging childhood brain tumours are unique, and paediatric-focused studies are less common. We aimed to assess the Brain tumour diagnostic utility of apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) values derived from diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) Paediatrics and cerebral blood flow (CBF) values derived from arterial spin labelling (ASL) in paediatric brain tumours. Methods: We performed a meta-analysis of published studies reporting ADC and ASL-derived CBF values in paediatric brain tumours. Data were combined using a random effects model in order to define typical parameter ranges for different histological tumour subtypes and WHO grades. New data were also acquired in a ‘validation cohort’ at our institution, in which ADC and CBF values in treatment naïve paediatric brain tumour patients were measured, in order to test the validity of the findings from the literature in an un-seen cohort.

Okell1* 1 Wellcome Centre for Integrative Neuroimaging, FMRIB, Nuffield Department of Clinical Neurosciences, University of Oxford, Oxford, United Kingdom *Mark Chiew and Thomas W. Okell contributed equally to this work Correspondence to: Sophie Schauman, FMRIB Centre, University of Oxford, Nuffield Department of Clinical Neurosciences, John Radcliffe Hospital, Headington, Oxford, OX3 9DU, United Kingdom [email protected] Abstract Purpose: To demonstrate that vessel-selectivity in arterial spin labeling angiography can be achieved without any scan time penalty or noticeable loss of image quality compared to conventional arterial spin labeling angiography. Methods: Simulations on a numerical phantom were used to assess whether the increased sparsity of vessel-encoded angiograms compared to non-vessel-encoded angiograms alone can improve reconstruction results in a compressed sensing framework. Further simulations were performed to study whether the difference in relative sparsity between non-selective and vessel-selective dynamic angiograms were sufficient to achieve similar image quality at matched scan times in the presence of noise. Finally, data were acquired from 5 healthy volunteers to validate the technique in vivo. All data, both simulated and in vivo, were sampled in 2D using a golden angle radial trajectory and reconstructed by enforcing both image domain sparsity and temporal smoothness on the angiograms in a parallel imaging and compressed sensing framework.
