Abstract
The lack of early detection and a high rate of recurrence/progression after surgery are defined as the most common causes of a very poor prognosis of Gliomas. The developments of quantification systems with special regards to artificial intelligence (AI) on medical images (CT, MRI, PET) are under evaluation in the clinical and research context in view of several applications providing different information related to the reconstruction of imaging, the segmentation of tissues acquired, the selection of features, and the proper data analyses. Different approaches of AI have been proposed as the machine and deep learning, which utilize artificial neural networks inspired by neuronal architectures. In addition, new systems have been developed using AI techniques to offer suggestions or make decisions in medical diagnosis, emulating the judgment of radiologist experts. The potential clinical role of AI focuses on the prediction of disease progression in more aggressive forms in gliomas, differential diagnosis (pseudoprogression vs. proper progression), and the follow-up of aggressive gliomas. This narrative Review will focus on the available applications of AI in brain tumor diagnosis, mainly related to malignant gliomas, with particular attention to the postoperative application of MRI and PET imaging, considering the current state of technical approach and the evaluation after treatment (including surgery, radiotherapy/chemotherapy, and prognostic stratification).
