Relative tissue oxygen saturation (rStO₂) and relative oxyhemoglobin concentration (rHbO₂) were highly correlated with rKi67. Results with statistical significance (p-value <0.05) are shown in bold (n = 9). rTHC denotes relative total hemoglobin concentration, rHb denotes relative deoxyhemoglobin concentration, and rμ_s' denotes relative reduced-scattering coefficients
