Important morbidity and impairment of life quality arises from both the primary pathology and therapeutic interventions in children with central nervous system (CNS) tumors. Standardized and systematic collection of morbidity data is a prerequisite of clinical trials in this field. The perception of
The effect of cranial irradiation on possible therapy-induced morphological central nervous system (CNS) side effects of children cured from acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) is controversially discussed. In a retrospective multicenter study, 118 former ALL patients in first continuous remission we
## Abstract ## Purpose To determine whether differences in specific spinal cord white matter (WM) tracts can be detected with in vivo DTI. ## Materials and Methods In vivo DTI was performed on six rats at the lower thoracic region using a 4.7T magnet. Axial diffusion images were obtained with di
