quantification; EPR is better suited than DRS to characterize tumor hypoxia. PPV did not radiosensitize E0771 tumors nor p53/MCA sarcomas, which may be related to the complex pattern of vasculature in each tumor. Additionally, understanding model-dependent tumor hypoxia will provide a much-needed foundation for future therapeutic studies with hypoxic radiosensitizers.
