Individual DCE-MRI parameters of tumor microcirculation with tumor plasma flow (PF; mL/100mL/min) and plasma volume (PV; %) at baseline and follow-up in the therapy and in the control group. Note the significant decrease of tumor microcirculatory parameters PF and PV between day 0 and day 7 as well as the significantly lower mean values of PF and PV in the therapy than in the control group at the follow-up.

* significant difference (p < 0.05) between baseline and follow-up

# significant difference (p < 0.03) between therapy and control group

n/a = not available due to technical issues
