Purpose: Several studies have used objective radiologic data to assess the effect of palliative radiotherapy on tumor burden. The purpose of this literature review was to survey the various metrics that have been used to quantify bone tumor response to palliative radiotherapy by radiographical means and to determine whether any of these metrics were associated with clinical palliative outcomes. Methods: In accordance with PRISMA extension for Scoping Reviews guidelines, a literature search Ovid Medline and OldMedline from 1946 to February 6, 2019, Embase Classic/Embase from 1947 to 2019 week 5, and Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials February 2019 to extract articles related to quantified radiologic evaluation of bone metastases following palliative radiotherapy. Imaging modality, quantification metric, and association between imaging modality and clinical response were recorded. Results: Fourteen articles selected for full-text review utilized computed tomography (10 studies), fluorodeoxyglucose-positron emission tomography (3 studies), magnetic resonance imaging (1 study), diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging (3 studies), and X-ray (1 study) imaging modalities. Variables assessed included tumor volume regression, bone density, metabolic activity, and signal intensity. Studies differed both in the type of imaging modality used and metric derived to quantify the radiologic findings. Fifty percent of the included studies aimed to identify a relationship between a quantified radiologic metric and clinical palliative response. Of these studies, 86% reported a correlation. Conclusion: Quantified radiologic metrics can provide an objective measure of response to palliative radiotherapy and may be useful in predicting clinical palliative response. More studies are needed to validate these metrics and develop a standardized protocol for radiologic evaluation that can be implemented into a clinical workflow.
