Rectal cancer

Abdomen & Pelvis

Rectal cancer develops in the last section of the large intestine and may cause no early symptoms. An MRI may show changes in the rectal lining or surrounding tissue that could be associated with a mass. Finding rectal cancer early, when it is localised, may significantly improve treatment outcomes and reduce the need for extensive surgery. MRI is the gold standard for rectal cancer staging and local assessment once diagnosed.

SCReening explained

It’s important to understand that OneMRI's full-body scan is a general proactive health scan developed to include areas where preventative screening delivers the most meaningful insight in a way that is safe and non-invasive. The scan should be used to compliment other routine scans and screening. It should not replace standard screening protocols or targeted procedures as recommended by your doctor, specialist or health provider. Examples of these include mammogram, prostate examination, cervical screening, colonoscopy, and lung cancer screening.
