For IDH1 wild-type tumors, the surgical goal is “complete resection of enhancement,” while for IDH1 mutant astrocytomas, which are mostly nonenhancing, the goal is “complete resection of T2/FLAIR hyper-intensity” A and B. Further studies are needed to determine the optimal targeting of radiation therapy for IDH1 mutant gliomas C.
