    Association of transcobalamin c. 776C>G with overall survival in patients with primary central nervous system lymphoma

    Chemotherapy for primary central nervous system lymphoma (PCNSL) is based on methotrexate (MTX), which interferes with both nucleic acid synthesis and methionine metabolism. We have reported previously that ge...

    FDG-PET in immunocompetent patients with primary central nervous system lymphoma: correlation with MRI and clinical follow-up

    The role of FDG-PET in primary central nervous system lymphoma (PCNSL) is unclear. It was the aim of this study to investigate the role of FDG-PET in detecting PCNSL and in predicting response to chemotherapy.
