2 Introduction Glioblastoma is the most common and most aggressive primary brain tumor in adults. Poor prognosis (median survival 15 months). Variable patient survival.

3 Introduction BIOMARKERS IMAGING Perfusion-MRI (rcbv) Diffusion-MRI (ADC) MOLECULAR - MGMT - EGFR - PTEN Epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR): Is commonly overexpressed in adults with high-grade gliomas

4 Introduction BIOMARKERS IMAGING Perfusion-MRI (rcbv) Diffusion-MRI (ADC) MOLECULAR - MGMT - EGFR - PTEN DWI (ADC): Has an inverse relationship with the tumor cellulary and glioma grade, for that reason it has been proposed as a predictor of prognosis.

5 Objective 1 2 To analyse if:. Values of apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) correlate with survival.. Values of ADC can predict the amplification status of EGFR.

40 Limitations Retrospective nature of the study. Small number of patients. In our study, we did not determine the influence of other molecular markers such as MGMT, that could modify the survival of our patients.

41 Conclusions 1 ADC-index value and ADCmin value could be strong predictors of survival in patients with GBM, independently of the EGFR status.

42 Conclusions 1 ADC-index value and ADCmin value could be strong predictors of survival in patients with GBM, independently of the EGFR status. 2 There were no significant differences in the value of ADCindex in the patients with EGFR amplification and EGFR non amplification status.

43 Conclusions Our findings suggest that ADC values are not useful to predict the EGFR amplification status.. But it is strong independent predictor of OS
