This review summarizes current applications and clinical utility of diffusion-weighted imaging
(DWI) for rectal cancer and in addition provides a brief overview of more recent …

The conduct of clinical trials in colorectal cancer has historically relied upon endpoints such
as disease-free (DFS) or overall survival (OS). While ideal, these endpoints require long …

Background To develop and compare delta-radiomics signatures from 2-(2D) and 3-
dimensional (3D) features that predict treatment outcomes following preoperative …

Imaging biomarkers for the predictive assessment of treatment response in patients with
cancer earlier than standard tumor volumetric metrics would provide new opportunities to …

Simple Summary The present study aimed to investigate the possible use of MRI delta
texture analysis (D-TA) in order to predict the extent of pathological response in patients with …

Purpose In the clinical management of patients with locally advanced rectal cancer (LARC),
the early identification of poor and good responders after neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy …

predictor in colorectal carcinoma with special reference to mode of metastasis and …

Background. We hypothesized that texture analysis (TA) from the preoperative MRI can
predict early disease progression (ePD), defined as the percentage of patients who relapsed …

Background. To assess the value of combined T2-weighted magnetic resonance imaging
(MRI)(T2w) volumetry, diffusion-weighted (DW)-MRI and dynamic contrast enhanced (DCE) …

Preoperative chemoradiotherapy (pre-CRT) has been represented as the standard
treatment for locally advanced rectal cancer (LARC), but large variations of tumor radiation …
