Contrast-enhancement in supratentorial low-grade gliomas: a classic prognostic factor in the molecular age.

Background: Contrast enhancement (CE) is found in 10-60% of low-grade gliomas. Its prognostic significance is controversial, and its correlation with IDH mutations and 1p/19q codeletion is elusive. The aim of this study is to investigate whether CE is associated with molecular characteristics of low-grade gliomas and uncover its prognostic value.
