Synopsis

The authors investigated the correlation of the ratio of T1WI to T2WI signal intensity (rT1/T2) and IDH mutation status in lower-grade gliomas (LrGG). An exploratory study was conducted to determine an ideal cut-off of rT1/T2 for predicting IDH-mutation, followed by a validation study using two different cohorts. Mean rT1/T of IDH-wild type LrGG was higher than IDH-mutant and significantly predicted IDH mutation in the exploratory cohort. The domestic cohort validated this result, but the accuracy in the TCIA / TCGA cohort declined. The cause of this decline should be further investigated.
