High interstitial fluid pressure is associated with tumor-line specific vascular abnormalities in human melanoma xenografts.

High interstitial fluid pressure is associated with tumor-line specific vascular abnormalities in human melanoma xenografts.

PURPOSE: Interstitial fluid pressure (IFP) is highly elevated in many solid tumors. High IFP has been associated with low radiocurability and high metastatic frequency in human melanoma xenografts and with poor survival after radiation therapy in cervical cancer patients. Abnormalities in tumor vasc...
