Background

Preoperative differentiation of World Health Organization (World Health Organization) Grade I meningioma subtypes is clinically needed but limited with conventional magnetic resonance imaging (magnetic resonance imaging).

Methods

A retrospective multicenter cohort of 334 patients (162 fibrous, 91 transitional, 81 meningothelial) was enrolled.

n = 334 patients

Results

model correctly separates subtypes most of the time, 1.0 would be perfect

AUC 0.86 (95% CI 0.76 to 0.95)

null 0

0.76

0.95

CI excludes the null - significant

More results

Habitat analysis identified distinct imaging subregions corresponding to histological characteristics.

“

Conclusion

Integrating multimodal radiomics and habitat analysis enables accurate noninvasive preoperative discrimination of World Health Organization Grade I meningioma subtypes, providing a valuable tool for neurosurgical decision-making.
