Diffusion MRI parameters were able to significantly distinguish the
mutation state of IDH1 in low-grade
gliomas, as well as the methylation state of the MGMT promoter, but not
in glioblastomas.
Figure 3 Box and whisker plots
of DWI, IVIM and DKI metrics in lower-grade
gliomas stratified according to IDH1 genotype (IDH1 mutant and IDH1 wild type).
Boxes represent the median ± quartiles, with whiskers extending to the maximum
and minimum values.
