Popis: A thorough discussion of perturbative QCD for twist-4 is presented from a practical point of view. Misleading uses of intrinsic transverse momentum and mass terms are criticized and corrected in the complete expressions relevant for a model-independent experimental test of power corrections which is proposed. Upper and lower bounds for the twist-4 scale are deduced from a theoretically-consistent analysis of present DIS data with a simplified assumption on twist-4, from which a power-dominatedR=σL/R=σT is predicted.
