Modeling the Relationship between Fluorodeoxyglucose Uptake and Tumor Radioresistance as a Function of the Tumor Microenvironment

<table>Model predicted tumor dose for 50% control (TD<sub>50</sub>) in 2 Gy/fx versus FDG uptake (normalized to maximum) with median growth fraction value for each TD<sub>50</sub> group (right axis) for FDG uptake<i> pattern IV</i> with fixed cell loss factor of 0.9. Note that each box in the plot represents 25th to 75th percentile of the dataset with tails for whole range.</table>
