The O2 diffusion constants D and K of tumor tissue (DS-Carcinosarcoma in the rat kidney) were determined at temperatures of 20, 30, 37, and 40°C. The following mean values were obtained for the conditions of 37°C: D=1.75·10−5 cm2/s and K=1.9·10−5 mlO2/cm·min·atm. Within the range of 20–40°C, temperature variations in tumor tissue cause changes in the O2 diffusion coefficient D of 2.0–2.5%/°C and in the Krogh O2 diffusion constant K of 0.5–1.5%/°C. The measured O2 diffusion constants for tumor… CONTINUE READING
