摘要
Understanding a process from shallow to deep is necessary for controlling and even curing diseases. The history of diagnosis and treatment of brainstem gliomas vividly reflects this process. The development of neuroimaging plays a great role in tumor treatment at different periods, including the period when brainstem gliomas were regarded as an homogenous incurable disease, and currently it is considered as an entity with high heterogeneity. Presently, it is not enough to just rely on the conventional neuroimaging techniques to determine the anatomic location of a tumor and its relationship with normal tissues. The development of molecular genetics and molecular imaging further promotes the progress of individualized and precision diagnosis and treatment in brainstem gliomas. In this paper, we summarize the evolution of brainstem glioma radiological classification mainly focusing on the aspects of imaging and surgical treatment. In the meanwhile, we reviewed the recent progresses in the fields of molecular genetics and molecular imaging.
