Evaluation of response after pre-operative radiotherapy in soft tissue sarcomas; the European Organisation for Research and Treatment of Cancer – Soft Tissue and Bone Sarcoma Group (EORTC – STBSG) and Imaging Group recommendations for radiological examination and reporting with an emphasis on magnetic resonance imaging

Abstract At present, there is no standardised approach for the radiological evaluation of soft tissue sarcomas following radiotherapy (RT).

Description
Summary:Abstract At present, there is no standardised approach for the radiological evaluation of soft tissue sarcomas following radiotherapy (RT). This manuscript, produced by a European Organisation for Research and Treatment of Cancer – Soft Tissue and Bone Sarcoma Group (EORTC – STBSG) and Imaging Group endorsed task force, aims to propose standardisation of magnetic resonance imaging techniques and interpretation after neoadjuvant RT for routine use and within clinical trials.
