Objective To investigate the correlation between different grade glioma and MRI image texture parameters and the guiding value of texture analysis for postoperative prognosis.Methods A total of 107 glioma patients were selected,and the texture parameters of MRI images were recorded.The correlation between the grade of glioma and the texture parameters of MRI images was analyzed.The risk factors affecting postoperative adverse effects of glioma patients were analyzed,and the diagnostic efficacy of each texture parameter in predicting glioma grade and postoperative good condition was evaluated.Results Comparison of MRI image tex-ture parameters between patients with low-grade glioma and patients with high-grade glioma showed no significant differences in kur-tosis,skewness,standard deviation,contrast and uniformity,but significant differences in correlation,entropy,consistency and gap distance.Correlation,entropy,consistency and gap distance were significantly correlated with glioma grade.The diagostic efficiency of entropy in predicting glioma grade was significantly higher than that of correlation,consistency and gap distance.The combination of the four predicted glioma patients with good postoperative diagnostic efficacy was the highest.Conclusion The correlation,entropy,consistency and gap distance of MRI image texture parameters can effectively diagnose the grade of glioma,and the combination of the four parameters is more beneficial to the postoperative evaluation of glioma patients.
