In neoadjuvant cases, measure:
- Tumor bed which generally manifests as a fibroelastic area.
- Classification of residual cancer, for which there are multiple systems, mainly Residual Cancer Burden (RCB)[notes 1] and the American Joint Committee on Cancer post-neoadjuvant therapy staging system (yAJCC).[1]
