Background. Radiological characteristics may reflect the biological features of brain tumors and may be associated with genetic alterations that occur in tumorigenesis. This study aimed to investigate the relationship between radiological features and IDH1 status as well as their predictive value for survival of glioblastoma patients. Methods. The clinical information and MR images of 280 patients with histologically confirmed glioblastoma were retrospectively reviewed. The radiological characteristics of tumors were examined on MR images, and the IDH1 status was determined using DNA sequencing for all cases. The Kaplan-Meier method and Cox regression model were used to identify prognostic factors for progression-free and overall survival. Results. The IDH1 mutation was associated with longer progression-free survival (P = .022; hazard ratio, 0.602) and overall survival (P = .018; hazard ratio, 0.554). In patients with the IDH1 mutation, tumor contrast enhancement and peritumoral edema indicated worse progression-free survival (P = .015 and P = .024, respectively) and worse overall survival (P = .024 and P = .032, respectively). For tumors with contrast enhancement, multifocal contrast enhancement of the tumor lesion was associated with poor progression-free survival (P = .002) and poor overall survival (P = .010) in patients with wild-type IDH1 tumors. Conclusions. Combining the radiological features and IDH1 status of a tumor allows more accurate prediction of survival outcomes in glioblastoma patients. The complementary roles of genetic changes and radiological features of tumors should be considered in future studies.
