Abstract
A comprehensive overview of the current status of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in the locoregional assessment and management of rectal adenocarcinoma is presented. Staging systems for rectal cancer and treatment strategies in its management are discussed to give the reader the context that shapes MRI acquisition techniques and interpretation. Findings on MRI are detailed and their accuracy reviewed based on currently available evidence. Optimization of MRI acquisition and relevant pelvic anatomy are reviewed. A detailed description of our approach in interpreting MRI for locoregional staging of rectal cancer is given and future directions are also introduced.
