Table 1 Estimation of durations of cell cycle phases in murine SL2 tumours using the proposed method and the RM methods *
Tumour "age" | Method | TG1 | TS | TG2 | TC |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
4 days (n = 10) | Proposed | 5.1 ± 0.4 | 12.6 ± 1.0 | 2.6 ± 0.5 | 20.3 ± 1.1 |
RM (linear) | N.A. | 14.1 ± 1.5 | N.A. | N.A. | |
RM (cubic) | N.A. | 14.8 ± 1.6 | 0.7 ± 0.4 | N.A. | |
10 days (n = 9) | Proposed | 5.4 ± 0.5 | 12.9 ± 0.6 | 3.3 ± 0.5 | 21.6 ± 0.9 |
RM (linear) | N.A. | 14.4 ± 1.1 | N.A. | N.A. | |
RM (cubic) | N.A. | 15.8 ± 3.3 | 1.4 ± 0.6 | N.A. |
