Early lesions – radiological evaluation, understaging vs. overstaging , indications for local resection or upfront surgery
Advanced tumors – neoadjuvant treatment options, indications and contraindications
Assessment of response to treatment
Break
T4b: role of MRI in planning multivisceral resection (including lower rectum)
Systemic staging in high-risk tumors. Risk of local recurrence and metastatic disease
