Abstract:Background: To explore the feasibility of diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) metrics to predict the histologic subtypes and genetic status of gliomas (e.g., IDH, MGMT, and TERT) noninvasively.Methods: One hundred and eleven patients with pathologically confirmed WHO grade II-IV gliomas were recruited retrospectively. Apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) values were measured in solid parts of gliomas on co-registered T2-weighted images and were compared with each other in terms of WHO grading and genotypes using … Show more
