From: pO polarography, contrast enhanced color duplex sonography (CDS), [18F] fluoromisonidazole and [18F] fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography: validated methods for the evaluation of therapy-relevant tumor oxygenation or only bricks in the puzzle of tumor hypoxia?

Figure 1

Scatter plots visualizing type of association between selected polarographic parameters (median pO2, hypoxic fraction ≤ 2.5 mmHg and ≤ 5.0 mmHg) and color pixel density (CPD) as well as FMISO tumor to muscle ratio (FMISOT/M) after 2 h (→ marked outliers). Left graphs: scatter plots using all available data values. Right graphs: corresponding scatter plots after exclusion of marked outliers identified in the left graph.
