Fig. 6
Bladder-related cross-correlation matrix of Spearman’s correlation coefficients. (ρ). Upper triangle; ρ values with insignificant correlation (p ≤ 0.05) marked with an X. Lower triangle; colour coded coefficients. S(x) = prostatic sector number ‘x’, Bla = bladder, D0.1cc and D2cc = the doses received by the hottest 0.1 cc and 2 cc of the volume, respectively. Foci base = γH2AX/53BP1 foci count at baseline (pre-treatment (t = 0 h)). Foci R t = ratio of foci count at time point t relative to baseline (0 h). EPIC (x) = change in EPIC score from baseline; positive values reflecting improvement, negative values deterioration and 0 no change. * For space consideration all ρ values are presented as percentages
