Automated image analysis tool for tumor volume growth rate to guide precision cancer therapy: EGFR-mutant non-small-cell lung cancer as a paradigm

ConclusionsThe present study describes the development of an image analytic module for assessing tumor growth rate and the data demonstrates the functionality and reproducibility of the module in a pilot cohort of EGFR-mutant NSCLC patients treated with EGFR-TKI. The image analytic module is an initial step for clinical translation of the tumor growth rate approach to guide cancer treatment in precision oncology.
