Data were the median(min-max); the remainder were mean (standard deviation) or number (%). value <0.05 was considered a significant difference. NeV: necrotic volume of tumor; EnV: volume of enhanced portion of tumor; EdV: volume of edema around tumor; CNV: necrotic volume percentage of core; ONV: necrotic volume percentage of overall; Cho/NAA: the ratio of N-acetylaspartic acid to creatine in MRS; Cho/Cr: the ratio of choline to creatine in MRS; Lip: lipid peak of MRS; Lac: lactate peak of MRS; TERTm: the TERT promoter mutations; TERTw: the wild type of TERT promoter.
