Figure 5. Effect of treatments on tumor properties determined by multiparametric MRI before and after treatment.

Figure 5

Multiparametric MRI was performed as given in Fig. 5A. ADC: apparent diffusion coefficient (vehicle n = 6; coDbait n = 6; vehicle+RT n = 9; coDbait+RT n = 10), AUCGd-DOTA: area under curve of Gd-DOTA extravasation (vehicle n = 6; coDbait n = 6; vehicle+RT n = 9; coDbait+RT n = 10). BVf: blood volume fraction. Mean BVf in the contralateral striatum was set at 3% for normalization purposes (vehicle n = 6; coDbait n = 6; vehicle+RT n = 8; coDbait+RT n = 10). VSI: vessel size index (vehicle n = 3; coDbait n = 4; vehicle+RT n = 8; coDbait+RT n = 10). RM-ANOVA, $: effect of irradiation between D-1 and D9, p<0.05. Mean ± SD.
