TRAC Program
Collaborators: Stanford Radiology
To be efficient, immunotherapy and other tumor-directed interventions require consistent tracking of tumor measurements across time. Radiologists need repeatable baseline and follow-up measurements for the same target lesions, documentation of non-target disease, and a standardized way to compare change across multiple examinations. Without a consistent longitudinal measurement workflow, response assessment becomes more variable and time-consuming.
Stanford radiologists identified that these measurements were not being tracked or managed in a standardized way across timepoints and requested a formal program to address the gap. They approached the Stanford 3DQ Lab because the lab was already providing standardized measurements and consistent imaging outputs in other clinical workflows, and they asked the lab to evaluate software options that could support longitudinal tracking and reporting.

TRAC is the program that resulted from that effort. The Stanford 3DQ Lab performs baseline measurements for selected target lesions, documents additional non-target lesions, and repeats the same measurements on follow-up imaging, often around three months after baseline and then at subsequent intervals. The lab applies tumor response criteria appropriate to the cancer type and treatment context and assembles structured outputs, including tables, longitudinal charts, and DICOM-derived image snapshots.
TRAC reports provide a consolidated longitudinal record of measurements and response categories from baseline through follow-up. Reports are stored within the system and are available for radiologists and referring teams to review as part of ongoing treatment response documentation.
