Fig 4. Distribution of mean τ₂ in all divided 10 layers for normal (black square) and precancerous (red circle) samples.

Here, the mean τ₂ for each pathological state was calculated from the sample pool which includes 10 normal, 8 CIN1, 6 CIN2 and 8 CIN3 cervical tissue sections and the averaged relative standard deviation (RSD) was calculated to be 18% for all categories. More details regarding error bars are clarified in S5 Fig.
