Structural and advanced imaging in predicting MGMT promoter methylation of primary glioblastoma: a region of interest based analysis

Abstract Background The methylation status of oxygen 6-methylguanine-DNA methyltransferase (MGMT) promoter has been associated with treatment response in glioblastoma(GBM). Using pre-operative MRI techniques to predict MGMT promoter methylation status remains inconclusive. In this study, we investig...
