We use these data to extract the nonradiative sigma(e(+)e(-) -> pi(+)pi(-)pi(+)pi(-)) cross section in the energy range from 0.6 to 4.5 GeV. The total uncertainty of the cross section measurement in the peak region is less than 3%, higher in precision than the corresponding results obtained from energy scan data. %R 10.1103/PhysRevD.85.112009 %U http://arxiv.org/abs/1201.5677 %U https://doi.org/10.1103/PhysRevD.85.112009 %P 112009-17pp
