OBJECTIVES: To distinguish isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH) genotypes and tumor subtypes of adult-type diffuse gliomas based on the fifth edition of the World Health Organization classification of central nervous system tumors (WHO CNS5) in 2021 using standard, high, and ultra-high b-value diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI). MATERIALS AND METHODS: This prospective study enrolled 70 patients with adult-type diffuse gliomas who underwent multiple b-value DWI. Apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) values including ADCb500/b1000 , ADCb500/b2000 , ADCb500/b3000 , ADCb500/b4000 , ADCb500/b6000 , ADCb500/b8000 , and ADCb500/b10000 in tumor parenchyma (TP) and contralateral normal-appearing white matter (NAWM) were calculated...
