Note - Only examined variables displaying significance at univariate analysis were evaluated at multivariate analysis. Multivariate analysis data were calculated with the regression model. TFVDS: tumor feeding vessel detection software; DSA: digital subtraction angiography; OR: Odds-ratio; CI95%: confidence intervals 95%
