Objective: This study compared the dynamic susceptibility contrast (DSC) magnetic resonance imaging parameters and apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) between pilocytic astrocytoma (PA) and diffuse midline glioma, H3K27-altered (DMG) variants. Methods: The normalized relative cerebral blood volume (nrCBV), normalized relative flow (nrCBF), percentile signal recovery (PSR), and normalized mean ADC (nADCmean) of 23 patients with midline PAs (median age, 13 years [range, 1–71 years]; 13 female patients) and 40 patients with DMG (8.5 years [1–35 years]; 19 female patients), including 35 patients with H3.3- and five patients with H3.1-mutant tumors, treated between January 2016 and May 2022 were statistically compared. Results: DMG had a significantly lower nADCmean (median: 1.48 vs. 1.96; p = 0.00075) and lower PSR (0.97 vs. 1.23, p = 0.13) but higher nrCBV and nrCBF (1.66 vs. 1.17, p = 0.058, respectively, and 1.87 vs. 1.19, p = 0.028, respectively) than PA. The H3.3 variant had a lower nADCmean than the H3.1 variant (1.46 vs. 1.80, p = 0.10). Conclusion: DMG had lower ADC and PSR and higher rCBV and rCBF than PA. The H3.3 variant had a lower ADC than the H3.1 variant. Recognizing the differences and similarities in the DSC parameters and ADC between these tumors may help presurgical diagnosis.
