Table 1. nTBV values according to genetic alterations.
Genetic alteration | nTBV* | p-value† | KS test‡ |
EGFR expression(+) group (n = 22) | |||
PTEN loss (n = 7) | 10.3±8.1 | 0.046 | Accepted(0.602) |
PTEN no loss (n = 15) | 5.6±2.3 | Accepted(0.319) | |
MGMT methylation status (n = 25) | |||
Methylation (+) (n = 16) | 5.4±1.8 | 0.046 | Accepted(0.845) |
Methylation (−) (n = 9) | 9.5±7.5 | Accepted(0.594) |
Note − Unless otherwise specified, the data are the means ± standard deviations.
nTBV: normalized relative tumor blood volume.
P-value for the comparison of means was calculated using unpaired Student’s t-test,
KS test: Kolomogorov-Smirnov test for distribution normality.
