Discrimination of low and high grade of human gliomas with TRI.

(a) Terahertz parameter (TP) values from regions of interest (ROIs) in tumors (n = 14), normal gray matters (n = 4), and normal white matters (n = 4). (b) Quantification of threshold value 1 (TH1) and TH2 (dashed red and green lines, respectively) for tumor discrimination using the data shown in (a). Data represent mean ± SD. ***P < 0.001 (Kruskal-Wallis test.) Representative cases of grade IV, III and II gliomas, characterized by (c) TRI images and (d) H&E stained image. Red regions indicate regions with TP value over TH1. The capitals A–G shown in (d) correspond to the ROIs in (c).
