Abstract
The results provide quantitative measurements of the effect of carbogen inhalation on intracerebral tumor pO2 and its effect on therapeutic outcome. Such direct repeated pO2 measurements by EPR oximetry can provide temporal information that could be used to improve therapeutic outcome by scheduling doses at times of improved tumor oxygenation. EPR oximetry is currently being tested for clinical applications.
