  1. Mean ± standard deviation (SD) for three repeated measures and % errors in parenthesis are shown for RECIST, WHO and volume analysis. RECIST and WHO calculations were based on their definitions. For volume calculation, an equation V=π/6·a·b·c where a, b and c are diameters in three perpendicular dimensions was used.
