Metric Options: CountsSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Review Description
Low-grade gliomas (LGGs) are tumors that affect mostly adults. These neoplasms are comprised mainly of oligodendrogliomas and diffuse astrocytomas. LGGs remain vexing to current management and therapeutic modalities although they exhibit more favorable survival rates compared with high-grade gliomas (HGGs). The specific genetic subtypes that these tumors exhibit result in variable clinical courses and the need to involve multidisciplinary teams of neurologists, epileptologists, neurooncologists and neurosurgeons. Currently, the diagnosis of an LGG pivots mainly around the preliminary radiological findings and the subsequent definitive surgical diagnosis (via surgical sampling). The introduction of radiomics as a high throughput quantitative imaging technique that allows for improved diagnostic, prognostic and predictive indices has created more interest for such techniques in cancer research and especially in neurooncology (MRI-based classification of LGGs, predicting Isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH) and Telomerase reverse transcriptase (TERT) promoter mutations and predicting LGG associated seizures). Radiogenomics refers to the linkage of imaging findings with the tumor/tissue genomics. Numerous applications of radiomics and radiogenomics have been described in the clinical context and management of LGGs. In this review, we describe the recently published studies discussing the potential application of radiomics and radiogenomics in LGGs. We also highlight the potential pitfalls of the above-mentioned high throughput computerized techniques and, most excitingly, explore the use of machine learning artificial intelligence technologies as standalone and adjunct imaging tools en route to enhance a personalized MRI-based tumor diagnosis and management plan design.
