a, the outcome of methylation profiling of 44 IDH-wildtype CNS tumours with low-grade histology. Of these, 26 resolved into methylation classes associated with low-grade behaviour, and 18 resolved into entities associated with high-grade behaviour. b, shows how various tumours manifesting with low-grade histology resolve into distinct high-grade methylation classes.
