Abstract excerpt
PURPOSE: The purpose of this study was to explore the usefulness of diffusion kurtosis imaging (DKI) and molecular markers in predicting the prognosis of glioma patients. METHOD: Fifty-one patients with gliomas were examined by conventional MRI and DKI at 3.0 T before operation. The mean kurtosis (MK), mean diffusivity (MD), axial kurtosis (AK), and radial kurtosis (RK) values of tumors were measured and...
