Abstract:Background: Grade 2–3 diffuse gliomas (DGs) show extensive infiltration through white matter (WM) tracts. Along-tract analysis of WM tracts based on diffusion tensor tractography (DTI) can been performed to assess the microstructural integrity of WM tracts. The clinical implication of these DTI-related findings is still under debate, especially in tumor patients. The aim of this study was to analyze and compare diffusion-based parameters along WM tracts and variables specific to WM -tumor interactions in DGs a… Show more
