Figure 5. Nomogram for calculating an overall 4 year and 6 year survival prediction conditional upon 3 years of survival.

For each parameter, a vertical line is drawn intersecting with the value corresponding to the patient and the “Score” line. In order to determine the 12 or 36 month prediction, a vertical line is drawn intersecting the cumulative sum of all the “Score” line intersection values on the “Total Score” line with the corresponding survival line. Abbreviations: I – induction chemotherapy; CRT – chemoradiation; POCRT – postoperative chemoradiation; PORT – postoperative radiation; RT – radiation.
