    • A method of assessing the susceptibility of a breast tumor to a reduction in hypoxia, comprising delivering controlled amounts of oxygen and carbon dioxide to attain a starting end tidal concentration of oxygen (PetO2) which lies in the range of 350 to 450 mm Hg and a starting end tidal concentration of carbon dioxide (PetCO2) which lies in the range of 42 to 55 mm of Hg: incrementally increasing or decreasing the end tidal of at least one of oxygen and carbon dioxide wherein at least one increment is maintained for at least as long as the time required to obtain a surrogate measure of tumor oxygenation reflecting at least an increase or decrease in oxygenation of the tumor relative to a previously measured surrogate value of tumor oxygenation in at least one region of the breast tumor, wherein at least one of -- the starting PetO2and an incremental increase or decrease in PetO2--, is in the range of approximately 375 to approximately 425 mm of Hg, and wherein at least one of -- the starting PetCO2 and an incremental increase or decrease in PetCO2-- is in the range of approximately 42 to approximately 50 mm of Hg; and obtaining at least one surrogate measure of tumor oxygenation after incrementally increasing or decreasing the end tidal of at least one of oxygen and carbon dioxide for comparison to a previously measured surrogate value of tumor oxygenation, with respect to at least one region of the breast tumor.
