Accurate grading of gliomas is critical to guide therapy and predict prognosis. The presence of microvascular proliferation is a hallmark feature of high grade gliomas which traditionally requires targeted surgical biopsy of representative tissue. Superb microvascular imaging (SMI) is a novel high resolution Doppler ultrasound technique which can uniquely define the microvascular architecture of whole tumours.

However, the cell type-specific epigenetic landscape of RCC-broadly and in the context of these mutations-is incompletely understood. To investigate these open questions, we integrated single nucleus ATAC sequencing data from RCC tumors across four independent cohorts.
