In addition, contrast-enhancing residual tumor volume (CE-RTV) alone has rarely been analyzed quantitatively to determine if it is a predictor of outcome. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of CE-RTV and T2\/FLAIR residual volume (T2\/F-RV) on overall survival.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>A retrospective review of 128 patients who underwent primary resection of supratentorial GBM followed by standard radiation\/chemotherapy was undertaken utilizing quantitative, volumetric analysis of pre- and postoperative MR images.

The overall median survival was 13.8 months, with a median Karnofsky Performance Scale (KPS) score of 90 at presentation. The median contrast-enhancing preoperative tumor volume (CE-PTV) was 29.0 cm\n                      <jats:sup>3<\/jats:sup>\n                      , and CE-RTV was 1.2 cm\n                      <jats:sup>3<\/jats:sup>\n                      , equating to a 95.8% median EOR.

CE-PTV, CE-RTV, T2\/F-RV, and EOR were all statistically significant predictors of survival when controlling for age and KPS score. A statistically significant benefit in survival was seen with a CE-RTV less than 2 cm\n                      <jats:sup>3<\/jats:sup>\n                      or an EOR greater than 98%.

Both the medical student and fellow recorded correlation coefficients of 0.98 when compared with the attending surgeon's measured volumes of CE-PTV, while for CE-RTV, correlation coefficients of 0.67 and 0.71 (medical student and fellow, respectively) were obtained.\n                    <\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>CE-RTV and EOR were found to be significant predictors of survival after GBM resection.
