• A combination of multimodal MRI may improve the diagnostic performance to predict Ki-67 LI and ATRX mutation status. • Compared with IDH-mutant astrocytoma with low Ki-67 LI, IDH-mutant astrocytoma with high Ki-67 LI was more likely to show necrosis, edema, enhancement, poorly defined margin, higher ITSS levels, lower ADC, and higher rCBV. • ATRX wild-type IDH-mutant astrocytoma was more likely to show edema, higher ITSS levels, and lower ADC compared to ATRX mutant IDH-mutant astrocytoma.
