Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVES: Seeking a noninvasive predictor for BRAF V600E mutation status of pleomorphic xanthoastrocytomas (PXAs) is essential for their prognoses and therapeutic use of BRAF inhibitors. We aimed to noninvasively diagnose BRAF V600E-mutated PXAs using MRI morphologic, DWI and clinical parameters. METHODS: The clinical findings, anatomical MRI characteristics, and diffusion parameters of 36 pathologically...
