Habitat analysis based on diffusion kurtosis imaging to predict adult-type diffuse gliomas grade

Glioma composition is complicated, making whole-tumor investigation with traditional pathological analysis typically challenging. It is possible to demonstrate intratumor heterogeneity using habitat analysis in radiography, a technique analogous to biological environmental analysis with individualized descriptions and quantitative expression of subregions inside the region of interest. Therefore, our goal was to create an integrated model for the habitat analysis-based diffusion kurtosis imaging diagnosis of adult-type diffuse glioma grade. According to the findings, diffusion kurtosis imaging based on habitat analysis accurately predicted adult-type diffuse gliomas grade, which may help to resolve some "intermediate situations" that are challenging to diagnose clinically.
