<unk>  (PERCIST) is a set of rules that define when tumors in cancer patients improve ("respond"), stay the same ("stabilize"), or worsen ("progress") during treatment, using positron emission tomography <unk> . The<unk>  were published in May 2009 in the Journal of Nuclear Medicine (JNM). A pooled analysis from 2016 concluded that its application may give rather different results from RECIST, and might be a more suitable tool for understanding tumor response to treatment.
