Table 2.

The fractional metastatic signal in the subset of patients with metastatic disease for whom interpretable T2-weighted MRI data were available (n=10)

Patient FU Half-life (min) FMS Mets
A 8.9 0.05 +
B 11.9 0.05 +
C 15.5 0.49 +
E 9.4 0.52 +
F 7.5 0.19 +
G 7.4 0.10 +
I 5.9 0.21 +
J 11.8 0.05 +
M 9.3 0.27 +
P 4.9 0.19 +

The FMS is the fraction of detected 19F signal which would result from metastases if 5FU and its metabolites were distributed uniformly throughout the liver and metastases
