Fig. 3From: Tumor Area Positivity (TAP) score of programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1): a novel visual estimation method for combined tumor cell and immune cell scoringPD-L1 positive staining. Both circumferential and partial/lateral membrane staining of TC at any intensity is regarded as positive PD-L1 staining, while cytoplasmic staining of TC is disregarded; membranous, cytoplasmic, and punctate staining of tumor-associated IC at any intensity is regarded as PD-L1 positive staining.
