Significance level set at P-value <.05:

aComparing non-enhancing hypo intense volume on T1-MPRAGE (100% anticipated tumor tissue) for LGG with contrast enhancing tissue for HGG;

bProbability cut-off value generated by regression model;

cComparing edematous tissue between HGG and MET;

dComparing ipsilateral normal appearing white matter in HGG and MET;

eComparing NE hypointense volume on T1-MPRAGE (100% anticipated tumor tissue) for LGG with CE tissue for MET.
