Table 3.

For different histopathological grading of PDAC mean/median, BF values are reported in (mL/100 g/min), BV is reported in (mL/100 g), and PS is reported in (mL/100 g/min)

Kovac and D'Onofrio classified both moderate- and well-differentiated lesions as low grade

aSignificant differences between pathological grading groups. Grade was high (poorly differentiated), intermediate (moderately differentiated), or low (well differentiated)

bMedian values, rest of the table report mean values
