Platinum distribution of the primary tumors and disseminated tumors. (A) Representative images of an abdominal dissemination in a type A case. Platinum was accumulated in a marginal area in tumor and stroma and little platinum was present in the tumor. Scale bar: 200 μm. (B) The platinum distribution of a matched primary tumor (ovary) of a type A patient. Little platinum existed in the tumor compared to the stroma. Scale bar: 200 μm. (C) The platinum counts in the tumor and stroma in disseminated tumors (n = 4).
