[Abstract] Objective: Studies on intramoxin incoherent motion (IVIM) in predicting methylation of the high-grade glioma O6-methylguanine-DNA methyltransferase (MGMT) promoter application value of status.Materials and Methods: Thirty-four patients with high-grade glioma confirmed by pathology were collected, including 19 cases of WHO Ⅲ and 15 cases of Ⅳ. All patients underwent conventional craniocerebral MRI scans and IVIM scans before surgery. Tissue area, obtain true diffusion coefficient (D), perfusion related diffusion coefficient (D*), perfusion fraction (f), and divide the measured value of the tumor parenchyma by the normal brain on the opposite side In the substantial area, the corrected parameter values are obtained: relative D (relative D), relative D* (relative D*), and relative f (relative f). Two-sample independent t test is used to analyze the methylation group and non-methyl group of the MGMT promoter. The correction parameter differences between the groups were calculated, and receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves were plotted to calculate the threshold, sensitivity, and specificity.Results: The rD and rf values of MGMT promoter methylation group in high-grade glioma was higher than that in non-methylation group, and rD* value were lower than those in non-methylation group. The differences were statistically significant (P<0.05). The area under the ROC curve of rD, rD*, and rf values are: 0.856, 0.814, and 0.719; the thresholds are: 1.703, 1.058, and 1.756; the sensitivities are: 84.2%, 89.5%, and 63.2%; the specificities are: 73.3%, 60.0%, 93.3%.Conclusions: IVIM can non-invasively evaluate the methylation status of MGMT promoter in high-grade gliomas. Among them, rD* has high sensitivity, which can help guide patients' personalized diagnosis and treatment programs and assess prognosis.
