Abstract

Colorectal cancer is one of the commonest cancers detected as also amongst the most common causes of cancer death. Survival has improved due to better disease understanding and treatment; however, a substantial proportion of patients recur after curative intent therapy. In this article, we will discuss the imaging features of recurrent colorectal cancer and the role of the radiologist in its management.
