Precision Imaging of Pediatric High-grade Gliomas with Quantitative Diffusion Weighted Imaging and Texture Analysis to Identify Imaging Biomarkers That Predict Tumor Genetics and Patient Outcomes

Our group focuses on characterizing the imaging features within pediatric brain tumors that predict tumor molecular subgroups and patient outcomes. The goal of our project is to develop imaging based classification of pediatric high grade gliomas that will stimulate discovery of novel imaging biomarkers that predict driver mutations in these tumors.
