Treatment response monitoring allows clinicians to assess the effectiveness of therapeutic interventions, make informed decisions about continuing or modifying treatment, and ultimately optimizes patient outcomes. Similarly, postoperative surveillance plays a vital role in the early detection of recurrence, management of treatment-related complications, and the overall long-term well-being of patients. In the context of complex and potentially life-threatening conditions, such as cancer, the ability to accurately evaluate treatment response and proactively monitor for signs of recurrence or complications can significantly impact a patient's prognosis and quality of life. Clinicians must carefully consider the appropriate timing, modalities, and interpretation of response assessments, as well as the design of tailored postoperative surveillance protocols. This overview will delve into the key principles, challenges, and emerging trends surrounding treatment response monitoring and postoperative surveillance, highlighting the multifaceted nature of these essential components of patient care. By understanding the nuances and best practices in this domain, healthcare providers can enhance their decision-making, improve patient outcomes, and contribute to the ongoing advancement of clinical practice.
