Core Tip For brainmetastasis delineation, enhanced T2-fluid-attenuated inversion recovery (T2-FLAIR) sequence can significantly enhance the accuracy of target contouring in condition of low-dose gadolinium-based contrast agents. Simultaneously, in consideration of the heterogeneity inside the tumor enhanced T2-FLAIR sequence can help to provide a more personalized treatment.
