The relationship between ADC histogram-based metrics and
neurofibromatosis type1 (NF1) in optic pathway gliomas (OPG)
is investigated. Non-NF1 OPGs are known to carry a
significantly poorer prognosis without any differences
in conventional MR imaging markers. This study suggests
that there are no differences in ADC-based metrics
between NF1 groups either.
