Abstract
Rectal cancer is common and accounts for more than one-third of colorectal tumors. It is associated with significant morbidity and mortality. Previously computed tomography scan is the key imaging modality in preoperative assessment to detect local invasion and distant metastasis. However, the advent of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) has aided in local staging and prognosticates the outcome of rectal tumor. Here, the author briefly explains why rectal MRI has a comprehensive role and provides a simple and easy way in reporting an MRI rectal carcinoma, even for a non-radiologist.
