Note:—SHH indicates sonic hedgehog–activated medulloblastoma (only TP53 wild type in this cohort); WNT, wingless-activated medulloblastoma.
↵a Candidate imaging biomarkers for the differentiation of 3 different genetic medulloblastoma entities in this cohort (SHH, WNT, non-SHH/non-WNT Group 4) are listed on the left.
↵b Significant.
↵c Near significance when comparing all 3 groups.
