Of a total of 152 lung cancer patients analysed for heterogeneity, 124 (82%) were discussed at the MDT meeting. The TexRAD results were used for research purposes only and were not used to alter any individual patient�s treatment. The study suggests that there is a huge potential for the implementation of quantitative imaging in the assessment of tumour heterogeneity and engagement from radiologists is key to its success.
Now to me that is a very positive statement HUGE POTENTIAL !
