MRI is the mainstay for locoregional imaging assessment in rectal cancer. In light of the introduction of neoadjuvant therapies, such as total neoadjuvant treatment (TNT) and organ-preserving treatment for complete responders after TNT, accurate restaging is pivotal. This paper reviews the main MRI features for near-complete and complete responses after TNT and elaborates on the recently published rectal cancer MR imaging ESGAR guidelines.

Abstract
MRI is the mainstay for locoregional imaging assessment in rectal cancer. In light of the introduction of neoadjuvant therapies, such as total neoadjuvant treatment (TNT) and organ-preserving treatment for complete responders after TNT, accurate restaging is pivotal. This paper reviews the main MRI features for near-complete and complete responses after TNT and elaborates on the recently published rectal cancer MR imaging ESGAR guidelines.File in questo prodotto:
