Additional research tasks:

1. To conduct a comparative analysis of the diagnostic information obtained in the visualization of brain tumors by SPECT using 99mTc-1-thio-D-glucose with data obtained by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and/or positron emission tomography (PET) and immunohistochemical (IHC) research of postoperative material.
2. To study the diagnostic effectiveness of 99mTc-1-thio-D-glucose SPECT in imaging of brain tumors.
3. To evaluate the overall survival of patients with brain tumors depending on the results of 99mTc-1-thio-D-glucose SPECT.

Methodology:

Open-label, exploratory, single centre study. The subjects will receive a single injection of the labelled tracer.
