Summary of the EORTC and PERCIST 1.0 criteria

EORTC (79) PERCIST 1.0 (80)
CMR Complete resolution of FDG uptake in all lesions Complete resolution of FDG uptake in all lesions
PMR A > 25% reduction in the sum of SUVmax after more than one cycle of therapy A ≥ 30% reduction in SULpeak and an absolute drop of 0.8 SULpeak units
SMD Does not qualify for other categories Does not qualify for other categories
PMD A > 25% increase in the sum of SUVmax New FDG-avid lesions A ≥ 30% increase in SULpeak and absolute increase of 0.8 SULpeak units New FDG-avid lesion
