Abstract:
The treatment landscape for patients with colon cancer is continuously evolving. Risk-adapted treatment strategies, including neoadjuvant chemotherapy and immunotherapy, are slowly finding their way into clinical practice and guidelines. Radiologists are pivotal in guiding clinicians toward the most optimal treatment for each colon cancer patient. This review provides an overview of recent and upcoming advances in the diagnostic management of colon cancer and the radiologist's role in the multidisciplinary approach to treating colon cancer.

Radionuclide Testing
Radionuclide testing is a sophisticated medical technique for assessing gastrointestinal motility. It focuses on gastric emptying and colonic transit time. Radioactive markers track the movement of food through the digestive system, providing insights into gastrointestinal disorders.
In gastric emptying studies, a meal's liquid and...

Fundamental Principles of PET
Computed Tomography
The technique was invented in the 1970s and is based on the principle that as X-rays pass through the body, they are absorbed or reflected at different levels. In the technique, a patient lies on a motorized platform while a computerized axial tomography (CAT) scanner rotates...
