Brief Summary

This phase II trial studies how well F-18 fluoroethyltyrosine (fluoroethyltyrosine) works in detecting tumors in participants with intracranial tumors that have come back. FET accumulates in malignant...

Detailed Description

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES: I. To determine if F-18 fluoroethyltyrosine (FET) PET can differentiate between benign treatment-related changes and recurrence in comparison to pathology in population 1 with rec...

  • Recurrent metastatic lesions.
  • Recurrent high-grade gliomas (grades 3 and 4).
  • Recurrent low-grade gliomas (grades 1 and 2).
  • Population 2: Patients prior to primary treatment with planned biopsy or surgical resection.

Exclusion
