GroupInterventionDescription
Standard of care rsfMRI using the Support Vector Machine algorithmSupport Vector Machine* Once enrolled, clinical pre-surgical MRI will be done on Siemens 3T Prisma or Skyra scanners using a standard pre-surgical tumor protocol. Resting-state functional MRI (rsfMRI) will be acquired. The Support Vector Machine (SVM) algorithm will be used on this pre-surgical MRI. * Patients will undergo post-operative MRI at approximately 8-12 weeks following surgical resection to evaluate extent of resection. Patients will then undergo subsequent MRI imaging every 2-3 months as part of routine clinical care to monitor for recurrence. The following MR sequences will be acquired: pre-and post-contrast T1-weighted, T2-weighted FLAIR, diffusion weighted imaging. MRI scans will be reviewed by a board-certified neuroradiologist to determine date of radiographic progression/recurrence. Imaging features at recurrence including location, multifocality, and presence of diffuse or distant recurrence will also be recorded.
Primary Outcome Measures

Number of participants who are deemed as short-term survivor or a long-term survivorThrough completion of follow-up (estimated to be 2 years)

-Patients will be deemed as a short-term survivor or a long-term survivor and this will be defined as overall survival as less than or greater than 14.5 months, respectively.
