Abstract: Ecs diffusion parameters in human temporal cortex similar to those previously determined in rat cortex. Volume fraction ? and tortuosity ? are increased in astrocytic gliomas and the higher the glioma´s WHO grade the greater the ECS volume and tortuosity increase. Migration and invasiveness correlate with an increase in ECS volume.
Keywords: glial tumors
