Abstract :
This paper concerns a preliminary study of the relationship between survival time of both overall and progression free survival, and multiple imaging features of patients with glioblastoma. Simulation results showed that specific imaging features were found to have significant prognostic value to predict survival time in glioblastoma patients.
