Table 2.

Differentiability of the regions based on the relative enhancement (RE) after application of gadobutrol (upper right section) and the elastin-specific probe (lower left section) together for all examination time points.

Gadobutrol
Central Margin Peritumoral Liver Muscle
Central 1.52*** − .59* − .08 .13 .35
Margin − 1.24*** 2.43*** .51 .71** .93**
Peritumoral − .04 1.20*** 1.58*** .20 .42
Liver 1.12*** 2.36*** 1.16*** .90*** .22
Muscle 1.26*** 2.50*** 1.30*** − .14 .72**
Elastin-specific probe

Diagonal (bold print): strength of region discrimination (Bonferroni-corrected) using the elastin-specific probe compared to gadobutrol. Upper section: crude differences in gadobutrol RE between regions (central, margin, peritumoral, liver, muscle). Lower section: crude differences in elastin-specific RE between regions (central, margin, peritumoral, liver, muscle).
