Radiologists would record tumour measurements and response in tick-box, coded form rather than prose, so progression is machine-readable across every scan.
Response assessment (RECIST, PERCIST) is documented in free text that machines cannot reliably parse. Structured reporting templates with coded lesion measurements (RSNA RadReport, DICOM SR) and a response field would make progression a first-class data element for registries and RWE. The proposal mandates structured oncology follow-up reporting in publicly funded imaging and funds template integration in reporting software.
