• ADC histogram profiles to predict molecular CNS WHO grade 4 status among histologically lower-grade adult diffuse gliomas were evaluated. • Entropy of ADC and age were independent predictive parameters for molecular grade 4 status. • ADC histogram analysis is useful for predicting molecular grade 4 among histologically lower-grade gliomas.
