Background. High-grade gliomas with mutations in the isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH) gene family confer longer overall survival relative to their IDH-wild-type counterparts. Accurate determination of the IDH genotype preoperatively may have both prognostic and diagnostic value. The current study used a machine-learning algorithm to generate a model predictive of IDH genotype in high-grade gliomas based on clinical variables and multimodal features extracted from conventional MRI. Methods. Preoperative MRIs were obtained for 120 patients with primary grades III (n = 35) and IV (n = 85) glioma in this retrospective study. IDH genotype was confirmed for grade III (32/35, 91%) and IV (22/85, 26%) tumors by immunohistochemistry, spectrometry-based mutation genotyping (OncoMap), or multiplex exome sequencing (OncoPanel). IDH1 and IDH2 mutations were mutually exclusive, and all mutated tumors were collapsed into one IDH-mutated cohort. Cases were randomly assigned to either the training (n = 90) or validation cohort (n = 30). A total of 2970 imaging features were extracted from pre- and postcontrast T1-weighted, T2-weighted, and apparent diffusion coefficient map. Using a random forest algorithm, nonredundant features were integrated with clinical data to generate a model predictive of IDH genotype. Results. Our model achieved accuracies of 86% (area under the curve [AUC] = 0.8830) in the training cohort and 89% (AUC = 0.9231) in the validation cohort. Features with the highest predictive value included patient age as well as parametric intensity, texture, and shape features. Conclusion. Using a machine-learning algorithm, we achieved accurate prediction of IDH genotype in high-grade gliomas with preoperative clinical and MRI features.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
