PS and IS denote the manually measured (by pathologist) percent stained and intensity scores, respectively. PSA (percent score automated) and AI (average intensity) denote the corresponding automated scores. Hif1, hypoxia inducible factor 1; IHC, immunohistochemistry; ATM, averaged threshold measure.
