Background: Multiple radiomics models have been proposed for grading glioma using different algorithms, features, and sequences of magnetic resonance imaging. The research seeks to assess the present overall performance of radiomics for grading glioma. Methods: A systematic literature review of the databases Ovid MEDLINE PubMed, and Ovid EMBASE for publications published on radiomics for glioma grading between 2012 and 2023 was performed. The systematic review was carried out following the criteria of Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analysis. Results: In the meta-analysis, a total of 7654 patients from 40 articles, were assessed. R-package mada was used for modeling the joint estimates of specificity (SPE) and sensitivity (SEN). Pooled event rates across studies were performed with a random-effects meta-analysis. The heterogeneity of SPE and SEN were based on the \chi{}^2 test. Overall values for SPE and SEN in the differentiation between high-grade gliomas (HGGs) and low-grade gliomas (LGGs) were 84% and 91%, respectively. With regards to the discrimination between World Health Organization (WHO) grade 4 and WHO grade 3, the overall SPE was 81% and the SEN was 89%. The modern non-linear classifiers showed a better trend, whereas textural features tend to be the best-performing (29%) and the most used. Conclusions: Our findings confirm that present radiomics’ diagnostic performance for glioma grading is superior in terms of SEN and SPE for the HGGs vs. LGGs discrimination task when compared to the WHO grade 4 vs. 3 task.
