Summary

Any patient with a suspected primary adenocarcinoma of the colon, sigmoid or rectum undergoing surgery are eligible. The date of surgery must be known prior to registration. This trial aims to determine if image mapping techniques can improve the concordance between imaging and pathology detection of tumour deposits. Lymph nodes and tumour deposits will be identified on pre-operative scans and mapped by radiologists then shared with pathologists prior to processing the resected specimen. Patients will be managed at their local hospital with standard follow-up. Patients will be followed up for 5 years.

Conditions

  • Adenocarcinoma of the Rectum

Interventions

DIAGNOSTIC_TEST

MRI mapping to guide pathological sampling of extranodal tumour deposits

Radiologist to mark areas where extranodal disease is identified on MRI. The pathologist will use this to take additional samples for analysis. This will allow better pathological staging and will affect treatment decisions for patients.
