Axial T1 postcontrast MRIs for a patient with a newly diagnosed left parietal glioblastoma planned for maximal safe resection overlayed with connectomics-informed mapping of non-traditional networks, including the dorsal attention network (A), default mode network (B), and central executive network (C). These networks are involved in the non-contrast-enhancing tumor and would be transgressed in a RANO resect class 1 resection.
