Purpose Approximately 12,000 glioblastomas are diagnosed annually in the United States.
The median survival rate for this disease is 12 months, but individual survival rates can vary
with patient-specific factors, including extent of surgical resection (EOR). The goal of our
investigation is to develop a reliable strategy for personalized survival prediction and for
quantifying the relationship between survival, EOR, and adjuvant chemoradiotherapy.
