About
Winna Lim is a leading researcher in neuro-oncological imaging, with a focus on differentiating treatment-induced changes from tumor progression after advanced radiotherapy. Her work centers on the use of dynamic 18F-FET PET/CT to characterize the complex radiometabolic changes following CyberKnife robotic radiosurgery—a precise, single-session high-dose technique that, while effective, carries a heightened risk of radiation necrosis. In her highly cited 2022 study, Lim demonstrated how dynamic FET PET parameters can reliably distinguish recurrent primary brain tumors and brain metastases from radiation necrosis, addressing a critical clinical challenge where conventional imaging often falls short. This contribution has significant implications for guiding patient management and avoiding unnecessary interventions. With her work garnering increasing attention in the field, Lim is establishing herself as a key voice in bridging advanced radiotherapy physics with functional metabolic imaging, offering new tools for precision oncology in the brain.
