Abstract:Background: Patients with isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH) mutant gliomas have better survival and appear to be more sensitive to chemotherapy than their IDH wild-type counterparts. We attempted to assess the correlations of vessel size imaging (VSI) values with IDH mutation status and patient survival in diffuse lower-grade glioma (LGG). Methods: We enrolled 60 patients with diffuse LGGs, among which 43 had IDH-mutant tumors. All patients underwent VSI examination and VSI values for active tumors were calculate… Show more
