Table 3. Summary of AR-based TI differences between tumor and healthy tissue and between adenocarcinoma and squamous cell carcinoma.
Index | Tumor tissue | Healthy tissue | Adenocarcinoma | Squamous cell carcinoma |
---|---|---|---|---|
Homogeneity | - | + | + | - |
Entropy | + | - | - | + |
SRE | + | - | - | + |
LRE | - | + | + | - |

MV | N/A | N/A | - | + |
N/A: not applicable
+: high in this tissue
-: low in this tissue
For instance (first row), homogeneity is higher in healthy tissue than in tumor tissue, and is also higher in adenocarcinoma than in squamous cell carcinoma.
