T2-fluid-attenuated inversion recovery images (FLAIR) mismatch sign is now known to be a specific yet insensitive image feature for IDH-mutant, 1p19q non-codeleted astrocytoma. The current study revealed that lesion presenting T2-FLAIR mismatch exhibited extremely long T1- and T2-relaxation time while T2-FLAIR matched lesions showed low to moderate values. On the other hand, IDH-wildtype tumors presented...
