Core Tip	Accurate tumor burden assessment is a critical component of patient management and the investigation of new therapies. With the increasing clinical use of novel biologic targeted agents or locoregional therapies, morphological analysis confronted limitations, and new methods to assess tumor burden were desired. Advances in imaging technique enable us to assess tumor functions such as viability, vascular physiology, or metabolism, which can be new approaches to assess tumor burden.
