This phase II trial studies how well F-18 fluoroethyltyrosine (fluoroethyltyrosine) works in detecting tumors in participants with intracranial tumors that have come back. FET accumulates in malignant cells within intracranial neoplasms and can be used to detect recurrent disease and characterize the grade of glial neoplasms. Imaging agents such as FET can help oncologist to see the tumor better during a positron emission tomography (PET) scan.

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:
I. To determine if FET PET can differentiate between benign treatment-related changes (TRC) and recurrent glioma in comparison to a composite standard of truth (CSOT) that includes pathology and other clinical information, evaluated using estimates of sensitivity and specificity (Combined populations)
SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:
I. To determine if FET PET can differentiate between benign TRC and recurrent glioma in comparison to a histopathological standard of truth.(Combined populations).
II. To determine if FET PET can differentiate between benign TRC and recurrent glioma in comparison to a CSOT evaluated using estimates other than subject-based sensitivity and specificity.(Combined populations).
III. To assess the safety of FET PET, as determined by treatment emergent adverse events (TEAEs) within 48 hours of FET administration.(Combined populations).
IV. To describe the inter-reader variability between 3 independent blinded readers of FET PET images in assessments of benign TRC versus recurrent glioma.(Combined populations).
V. To describe intra-reader variability between 3 independent blinded readers of FET PET images in the assessments of benign TRC versus recurrent glioma.(Combined populations).
EXPLORATORY OBJECTIVES:
I. To assess relationships between serial FET PET and clinical outcome (benign TRC and recurrence) in patients with recurrent metastatic lesions, recurrent high grade gliomas and recurrent low-grade gliomas.
II. To determine if MRI can differentiate between benign treatment-related changes and recurrence.
III. To describe the distribution of the standardized uptake value (SUV) and tumor-to-background ratio (TBR) for observed lesions.
IV. To determine if FET PET can differentiate between benign TRC and recurrent metastatic lesions.
V. To determine if FET PET can accurately differentiate between low-grade and high-grade gliomas (Population 2).

Inclusion criteria
Exclusion criteria
Patients given an injected dose of 4 to 7 millicurie (mCi) of FET per scan. The radiopharmaceutical will be administered while the patient is in the PET scanner
Other names: 18F-FET, 18FET, 2''-[F18] Fluoro-ethyl-L-tyrosine, [18F]-Fluoro-ethyl-L-tyrosine, Fluorine-18 2''-Fluoroethyl-L-tyrosine, Fluoroethyltyrosine F18, O-(2[F18]fluoroethyl)-L-tyrosine
All patients receive single PET imaging lasting for 40 minutes. Acquired PET data will be reconstructed so that three time points are created: (1) Perfusion: 60-second acquisition that starts immediately when activity is noted in the field of view, (2) Equilibrium: 10-minute acquisition acquired between 10 and 20 minutes after injection, and (3) Washout: 10-minute acquisition acquired between 30 and 40 minutes after injection. A repeat PET image will be offered to adult patients.

Sensitivity is defined as a percentage of all participants with a true positive (TP) FET PET scan result relative to participants with a positive CSOT result = [TP / (TP + FN)] x 100. The CSOT for recurrence or benign treatment-related changes (TRC) will be evaluated by a panel of physicians independent of FET images and determined based on histopathology and other clinical data. Histopathology of target lesions obtained may be reviewed for up to 6 months after imaging. Positive for recurrence on follow-up scans will be based on Response Assessment in Neuro-Oncology (RANO) 2.0 criteria. For lesion-level standards, features of RANO will be considered. Histopathology and imaging will be primary factors used in determinations, followed by additional clinical data. From this, an overall determination will be made for each individual lesion, and this will be considered together with the patient-level determination.

Inter-reader variability will be analyzed using Fleiss' kappa statistic to determine the agreement between three independent blinded readers in assessing FET PET images as recurrence or TRC. Fleiss's kappa ranges from 0 to 1, where 0 indicates no agreement beyond chance, 1 indicates perfect agreement among all raters.
Time frame: Up to 6 months
Intra-reader variability will be analyzed based on a random sample of 15 subjects whose images were re- reviewed by the same reader. The percent of agreement between the two interpretations will be computed for each reader. Cohen's kappa statistics will be used to determine the reproducibility of the assessment by individual readers when analyzing the same data repeatedly. Cohen's Kappa ranges from -1 to 1, where-1 indicates complete disagreement between raters, 0 indicates agreement no better than chance, 1 indicates complete agreement between raters.
Time frame: Up to 48 hours after FET PET imaging
The proportion of all participants who have reported grade 3 and above adverse events after receiving interventional scan will be recorded using the NCI Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) v.4 will be reported.
