Description	Gliomas are intra-axial brain tumors with high biological heterogeneity. MRI is still considered the gold standard of diagnostic algorithms. Especially in gliomas with atypical enhancement patterns, where foci with different grading can coexist, PET could increase sensitivity and specificity of pre-surgery imaging by monitoring processes such as cell proliferation, membrane biosynthesis, and glucose consumption.
