Cerebral gliomas are the most common primary malignant brain tumor in adults and include Astrocytoma, Oligodendroglioma and Oligoastrocytoma. Due to its multi-parametric approach, MRI was used to quantify tumor heterogeneity with Texture Analysis (TA). To avoid unnecessary surgeries and set-up good treatment’s plan, the analysis of conventional MRI sequences was performed and showed a strong level of discrimination between the three gliomas on each sequence. TA has shown promise in the discrimination between lesions on MR images and provided satisfactory results.
