This paper presents integration of multimodal MR image
based texture analysis which take advantage of
complementary information derived from structural and
diffusion MR images. A supervised machine learning
approach is used to achieve image analysis based on
textural features from individual image types of T2,
T1-post contrast and ADC, as well their combination, in
order to characterize the multicenter dataset of the
most common pediatric brain tumors; medulloblastomas
(MB), pilocytic astrocytomas (PA), and ependymomas (EP).
