MP-MRI signatures of cellularity, CYT, and ECF capture a modest degree of variance using autopsy samples as ground truth, with stronger radio-pathomic relationships observed in non-GBM patients than GBM patients.

Mixed effect model results for cell density. The left-hand plots represent the first order models, whereas the right hand results represent the interaction between MR intensity and diagnosis, where blue = GBM and red = non-GBM.
