Changes in tumor status and tumor metabolic activity as evaluated by Micro-PET/CT between groups and at different time points. On day 18, the tumor growth in SBHFR group was significantly lower than that in CFRT and control groups (a). Tumor volume (b. F = 242.94, p < 0.05) and tumor growth inhibition rate (c. t = 10.70, p < 0.05) in SBHFR group were significantly lower than those in CFRT and control groups. The tumor metabolic range in SBHFR group was the smallest on day 7 (d. Red arrow), and the tumor metabolic activity in SBHFR group was significantly lower than that in CFRT and control groups on both days 7 and 14 (e. F = 42.60 on day 7 and 43.03 on day 14; p < 0.05). The difference was the most obvious on day 7. * Compared with the control group. # Compared with the CFRT group
