In order to combine multiple modalities of MRI in
preoperative cerebral glioma grading, a diagnosing tool
based on Bayesian Network was developed to integrate
features extracted from conventional MR imaging,
perfusion weighted imaging and MR spectroscopic imaging.
The structure of the network was determined in
cooperation with experienced neuroradiologists and the
parameters learned using EM (Expectation-Maximization)
algorithm with the incomplete dataset of 52 clinical
cases. The grading performance was evaluated in a
leave-one-out analysis, achieving the highest grading
accuracy of 88.24% with all the features observed.
