Individual-patient prediction of meningioma malignancy and survival using the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results database

Abstract Meningiomas are known to have relatively lower aggressiveness and better outcomes than other central nervous system (CNS) tumors. However, there is considerable overlap between clinical and radiological features characterizing benign, atypical, and malignant tumors. In this study, we develo...
