PURPOSE: The prognosis of lower grade glioma (LGG) patients depends (in large part) on both isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH) gene mutation and chromosome 1p/19q codeletion status. IDH-mutant LGG without 1p/19q codeletion (IDHmut-Noncodel) often exhibit a unique imaging appearance that includes high apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) values not observed in other subtypes. The purpose of this study was to develop an ADC analysis-based approach that can automatically identify IDHmut-Noncodel LGG. METHODS: Whole-tumor ADC metrics, including fractional tumor volume with ADC > 1.5 × 10-3mm2/s (VADC>1.5), were used to identify IDHmut-Noncodel LGG in a cohort of N = 134 patients. Optimal threshold values determined in this dataset were then validated using an external dataset containing N = 93 cases collected from The Cancer Imaging Archive. Classifications were also compared with radiologist-identified T2-FLAIR mismatch sign and evaluated concurrently to identify added value from a combined approach. RESULTS: VADC>1.5 classified IDHmut-Noncodel LGG in the internal cohort with an area under the curve (AUC) of 0.80. An optimal threshold value of 0.35 led to sensitivity/specificity = 0.57/0.93. Classification performance was similar in the validation cohort, with VADC>1.5 ≥ 0.35 achieving sensitivity/specificity = 0.57/0.91 (AUC = 0.81). Across both groups, 37 cases exhibited positive T2-FLAIR mismatch sign-all of which were IDHmut-Noncodel. Of these, 32/37 (86%) also exhibited VADC>1.5 ≥ 0.35, as did 23 additional IDHmut-Noncodel cases which were negative for T2-FLAIR mismatch sign. CONCLUSION: Tumor subregions with high ADC were a robust indicator of IDHmut-Noncodel LGG, with VADC>1.5 achieving > 90% classification specificity in both internal and validation cohorts. VADC>1.5 exhibited strong concordance with the T2-FLAIR mismatch sign and the combination of both parameters improved sensitivity in detecting IDHmut-Noncodel LGG.
