[¹⁸F]-FET-PET and sodium MRI were carried out on a cohort of patients with untreated cerebral gliomas. It is shown that the results from multiple quantum filtered sodium MRI using the enhanced SISTINA sequence are related to IDH mutational status in contrast to [¹⁸F]-FET-PET, thus providing the diagnostic potential to predict the genetic profile of gliomas.
