"≥10 mm at spiral CT with 5 mm reconstructed section thickness in the axial plane (not the sagittal or coronal planes at CT or MR imaging). Exception are lymph nodes when used as target lesions, which must be ≥15 in short axis."

"up to a maximum of 5 measurable lesions, with no more than 2 of the same organ (e.g. if a patient has two organs involved, then a maximum of 4 target lesions can be chosen). The chosen lesions should be representative of all the involved organs."

Line 77:246 · Do not put full stops at the end of a list item.

"sum of diameters (SOD) of all target lesions should be reported on the initial and all follow-up studies. The initial SOD is recorded as the baseline sum diameters (BSD), which is compared to on subsequent studies to determine response criteria (see below)."
