Table 2. . Twenty four-hours post-treatment quantitative ultrasound mean spectral and texture values for the most significant features demarcating complete responders from partial responders.
Parameter | p-value | CR (mean ± SEM) | PR (mean ± SEM) |
---|---|---|---|
ΔSI-ENE | 0.044 | 0.002 ± 0.001 | -0.004 ± 0.030 |
ΔSAS-HOM | 0.021 | 0.001 ± 0.002 | -0.035 ± 0.030 |
ΔASD-COR | 0.056 | 0.010 ± 0.008 | -0.047 ± 0.038 |
Bolded parameters demonstrate statistical significance. Other features approach near significance.
ASD: Average scatterer diameter; CR: Complete responders; COR: Correlation; ENE: Energy; HOM: Homogeneity; PR: Partial responders; SAS: Spacing among scatterers; SEM: Standard error of the mean; SI: Spectral intercept.
