Background:

The World Health Organization (WHO) Classification of Central Nervous System Tumors now includes four primary medulloblastoma subgroups.
Accurate identification of these subgroups is crucial for effective treatment planning and patient outcomes.
Current methods for subgroup determination can be complex and may not be universally accessible.

Purpose of the Study:

To develop a rapid and reliable machine learning workflow for the pre-operative determination of medulloblastoma subgroups.
To enable global accessibility of medulloblastoma subgroup classification using standard diagnostic tools.

Main Methods:

Development of a machine learning workflow.
Utilizing routine magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) data.
