Rectal Cancer Staging Using Whole Body MR-PET

December 10, 2019 updated by: Jeong Hee Yoon, Seoul National University Hospital

Preoperative Imaging for Rectal Cancer Staging Using Whole Body MR-PET

The purpose of this study is to measure the diagnostic performance of whole body (WB) MR-PET for staging rectal cancer, compared with current standard of care (chest/abdominopelvic CT and rectal MRI) to investigate clinical feasibility of WB MR-PET as a one-stop preoperative imaging modality in patients with rectal cancer.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
