External Validation of a Convolutional Neural Network for IDH Mutation Prediction.

ABSTRACT: Background and Objectives: The IDH (isocitrate dehydrogenase) status represents one of the main prognosis factors for gliomas. However, determining it requires invasive procedures and specialized surgical skills. Medical imaging such as MRI is essential in glioma diagnosis and management. Lately, fields such as Radiomics and Radiogenomics emerged as pertinent prediction tools for extracting molecular information out of medical images. These fields are based on Artificial Intelligence algorithms that require external validation in order to evaluate their general performance. The aim of this study was to provide an external validation for the algorithm formulated by Yoon Choi et al. of IDH status prediction using preoperative common MRI sequences and patient age.
