Researchers at the University of Miami are using whole-brain MR-spectroscopy (WB-MRS) and a new machine learning technique to predict brain tumor recurrence much sooner than detection on traditional MRI scans. WB-MRS provides detailed metabolic information across the entire brain, allowing for a more comprehensive view of tumor activity. While this was only a small pilot study, we hope to see broader application and validation of WB-MRS predictive models going forward.
