Abstract excerpt
PURPOSE: BRAF V600E mutation is a distinctive genomic alteration of pediatric low-grade gliomas with prognostic and therapeutic implications. The aim of this retrospective multicenter study was to analyze imaging features of BRAF V600E-mutant and wild-type cerebral pilocytic astrocytomas (PAs) and gangliogliomas (GGs), focusing on the role of diffusion weighted imaging (DWI). METHODS: We retrospectively evaluated...
