MRI features predict survival and molecular markers in diffuse lower-grade gliomas

Abstract

No enhancement and a smooth non-enhancing margin on MRI were predictive of longer PFS, while a smooth non-enhancing margin was a significant predictor of longer OS in LGGs. Textural analyses of MR imaging data predicted IDH1 mutation, 1p/19q codeletion, histological grade, and tumor progression with high accuracy.
