Differences between the asphericity for prostate cancer lesions with a Gleason score of 6–7, 8, and 9–10. a The bar chart demonstrates the asphericity values for the different Gleason score subgroups. A significant difference (p ≤ 0.05) was measured between prostate cancer lesions with a Gleason score of 6–7 and 8 and lesions with a Gleason score of 8 and 9–10. This potentially indicates that an increased tumor dedifferentiation/heterogeneity is accompanied by a gradual rise in the asphericity. Error bars indicate standard deviations. b The scatter diagram presents the correlation of the asphericity towards the Gleason scores. The linear regression line and the 95% confidence interval is shown. ASP: asphericity
