Abstract

This dataset is based on multimodal MRI and FAP-specific PET/CT Imaging applied to 13 patients with histologically proven glioblastomas. Imaging Data was processed using Medical Imaging Interaction Toolkit (MITK) software. MRI images (contrast enhanced T1w, T2w/FLAIR, ADC, rCBV) were co-registrated with FAP-specific PET images. T2w/FLAIR hyperintensities and contrast enhancing lesions were segmented manually. Necrotic areas were segmented manually and subtracted from T2w/FLAIR hyperintensities and contrast enhancing lesions. Voxelwise ADC/rCBV and PET signal intensities in projection on T2w/FLAIR hyperintensities and contrast enhancing lesions were extracted using the pixel dumper function of the MITK software and stored as excel-files. The data presented in this article has been analysed and described in the article FAP-specific "PET signaling shows a moderately positive correlation with relative CBV and no correlation with ADC in 13 IDH wildtype Glioblastomas" published in the European Journal of Radiology.
