Table 2 Pretreatment contrasts in photodynamic therapy-related parameters between two patients (mean ± SE)

	Lesion type	BFI (a.u.)	BVf (%)	StO2 (%)	cHPPH (μmol/L)
P1	CIS	6.7 ± 2.8	2.5 ± 0.7	74 ± 2	0.34 ± 0.02
P2	Dysplasia	1.8 ± 0.5	1.3 ± 0.2	64 ± 3	0.10 ± 0.03

All parameters except blood volume fraction showed a significant difference between two patients. Adapted from the reference[74] with the permission. cHPPH: photosensitizer concentration; BFI: Blood flow index; BVf: Blood volume fraction; StO2: Saturation; P1: Patient-1; P2: Patient-2; CIS: Carcinoma in situ.
