Abstract

In a chapter about rectal cancer there is content about rectal anatomy in relation to magnet-resonanse imaging and TME- surgery (total mesorectal excision). Secondly there is content about imaging methods used in diagnosis and follow-up of rectal cancer. Very important topic is concerning the novel imaging strategies in surgical and radiotherapy planning in the era of individual oncologic approach to the patient. At last there is detailed desctiption and metaanalysis of imaging strategies concerning neoadjuvant and adjuvant radiotherapy and chemotherapy for rectal cancer patients. All imaging markers correspond to substantial oncologic parameters such as survival rates. The connecting bridge is magnet-resonance imaging.

磁共振成像在癌症直肠癌患者中的作用

在关于癌症的一章中，有关于直肠解剖的内容，与磁共振成像和TME手术（全直缝直肠切除术）有关。其次介绍了影像学方法在癌症诊断和随访中的应用。非常重要的主题是在个体肿瘤学治疗患者的时代，外科和放射治疗计划中的新成像策略。最后对癌症患者新辅助放疗和化疗的影像学策略进行了详细的描述和荟萃分析。所有的成像标记物都对应于实质性的肿瘤学参数，例如生存率。连接桥是磁共振成像。

期刊介绍： Colorectal cancer is a major cause of morbidity and mortality, particularly in the developed world. Risk factors for colorectal cancer are on the rise in many countries; populations are aging, and obesity and diabetes are increasing. National screening programs are helping to detect cancer while it is still curable; however, colorectal cancer remains the third leading cause of cancer deaths in the USA and options are still limited for those with more advanced disease. Consequently, colorectal cancer is a major research priority for government, pharmaceutical companies and non-profit organizations. Research into diagnosis and optimum treatment of the disease is progressing rapidly, with new advances reported every day. Colorectal Cancer presents reviews, analysis and commentary. on all aspects of colorectal cancer.
