• Static 18F-FET PET and DSC-PWI parameters differed between low- and high-grade gliomas, with the highest AUC of the mean value of normalized CBV. • Static 18F-FET PET and DSC-PWI parameters based on hybrid PET/MR showed predictive value in identifying glioma IDH mutation subtypes, which have gained importance for both determining the diagnosis and prognosis of gliomas according to the 2016 WHO classification. • Static 18F-FET PET and DSC-PWI parameters have limited potential in differentiating IDH-mutated with 1p/19q codeletion oligodendrogliomas from IDH-wildtype glioblastomas or IDH-mutated astrocytomas.
