Assessing the predictability of IDH mutation and MGMT methylation status in glioma patients using relaxation-compensated multipool CEST MRI at 7.0 T

Early identification of prognostic superior characteristics in glioma patients such as isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH) mutation and O6-methylguanine-DNA-methyltransferase (MGMT) promoter methylation status is of great clinical importance. The study purpose was to investigate the non-invasive predictability of IDH mutation status, MGMT promoter methylation, and differentiation of low-grade versus high-grade glioma (LGG vs HGG) in newly diagnosed...
