Zusammenfassung
Ziele: To evaluate the prognostic value of different CT-measurement for response assessment after initiation of chemotherapy in patients with synchronous colorectal cancer liver metastases at initial staging. Methode: 35 patients with colorectal carcinoma and synchronous hepatic metastases at initial staging were retrospectively evaluated. The prognostic value of different CT- measurements concerning overall survival were evaluated after three cycles of capecitabine (Xeloda) based chemotherapy. Response-parameters were: the sum of longest diameters (SLD) (RECIST 1.1 criteria), product of the two longest diameter…
