BACKGROUND. CT is the standard-of-care test for preoperative locoregional staging of
colon cancer (CC) but has limited diagnostic performance. More accurate preoperative …

Radiologic imaging, especially MRI, has long been the mainstay for rectal cancer staging
and patient selection for neoadjuvant therapy prior to surgical resection. In contrast …

Purpose The shift from adjuvant to neoadjuvant treatment in colon cancer demands the
radiological selection of patients for systemic therapy. The aim of this study was to evaluate …

Introduction In an era of exploring patient-tailored treatment options for colon cancer,

The treatment landscape for patients with colon cancer is continuously evolving. Risk-
adapted treatment strategies, including neoadjuvant chemotherapy and immunotherapy, are …

The aim of this study is to compare the diagnostic performance of magnetic resonance
imaging (MRI) against computed tomography (CT) in various aspects of local staging in …

Purpose To investigate whether texture analysis of primary colonic mass in preoperative
abdominal computed tomography (CT) scans of patients diagnosed with colon cancer could …

Colon and rectal cancer imaging has traditionally been performed to assess for distant
