[Criteria for radiological assessment of therapy response : Criteria-based appraisal].

This article summarizes the most important and frequently used criteria: the response evaluation criteria in solid tumors (RECIST) criteria which are only used in solid malignancies, the Choi criteria that have been designed for the assessment of gastrointestinal stroma tumors (GIST), and the Cheson criteria that are applied to malignant lymphomas. The compilation of these criteria is designed to be used as a repetitorium for experts and can also serve as training guidelines for junior radiologists who want to become involved in clinical trial reporting.
