• In post-treatment glioblastoma, three spatial habitats of hypervascular cellular, hypovascular cellular, and nonviable tissue were identified, and an increase in the hypervascular cellular (OR 4.55, p = .002) and hypovascular cellular habitat (OR 1.22, p < .001) was predictive of tumor progression. • Combination of spatiotemporal habitats yielded a high diagnostic performance with an AUC of 0.89 (95% CI, 0.87-0.92). • An increase in hypovascular cellular habitat predicted the site of tumor progression in 84% (21/25) of cases with tumor progression.
