Radiological imaging is essential in the diagnosis and management of cancer, but current clinical practice makes little use of the additional information available from advanced, multi-modal imaging techniques. A major factor holding back adoption is a lack of robust clinical evidence supporting the critical value of these techniques. We argue there remain compelling needs for better designs of clinical trials, imaging protocol standards, quantification methods, efficient translation pathways and patient engagement.
放射成像在癌症的诊断和管理中至关重要，但目前的临床实践很少利用先进的多模态成像技术所提供的额外信息。阻碍这些技术应用的一个主要因素是缺乏有力的临床证据来支持其关键价值。我们认为，仍然迫切需要更好地设计临床试验、成像协议标准、量化方法、高效的转化途径以及患者参与。
