Oncology in general has seen vast advancements over recent years.
Improved und- standing of tumor biology, multidisciplinary team
decisions and an individualized therapy are cornerstones of
treatment planning for cancer patients today. These dev- opments
have challenged the imaging community with ever more specifc
questions on tumor detection, staging and therapy control. Whereas
this evolution applies to many tumor entities, rectal cancer takes
an outstanding role, as it was the recognition of certain
anatomical and pathological features of the disease, with the help
of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), that induced radiology not
only to aid in disease mana- ment, but in fact to be a powerful
engine for new concepts in rectal cancer treatment. The continuous
improvement of highly specialized MRI and the groundbreaking
scientifc contributions of radiologists all over the world have
paved the way for s- stantial refnements of this technique during
the last decade. Consequently, dedicated imaging protocols for
routine diagnostic work-up of r- tal cancer patients are now
available, which can guide multidisciplinary team de- sions and, in
combination with optimized surgery and chemoradiotherapy, lead to
longer survival and a better quality of life. Besides the scientifc
advances, the enduring clinical success of MRI in the feld of
rectal cancer is highly contingent upon expertise. To this end,
ongoing education and continuous training are vital.
