Abstract
This review covers important topics relating to the imaging evaluation of glioblastoma multiforme after therapy. An overview of the MacDonald and Response Assessment in Neuro-Oncology criteria as well as important questions and limitations regarding their use are provided. Pseudoprogression and pseudoresponse as well as the use of advanced magnetic resonance imaging techniques such as perfusion, diffusion, and spectroscopy in the evaluation of the posttherapeutic brain are also reviewed.
