Research progress of radiomics in predicting the efficacy of neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy for locally advanced rectal cancer
Preoperative neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy(nCRT)has become a standard treatment for patients with locally advanced rectal cancer(LARC).The evaluation of nCRT efficacy has traditionally relied on visual assessment of MRI images,colonoscopy,and postoperative pathology.However,these methods have their own limitations.The evaluation of the efficacy of nCRT is not enough to guide the clinical personalized treatment of patients with LARC.Recent in depth investigations into radiomics have revealed promising potential for predicting the effectiveness of nCRT.Consequently,this study will review the research status of radiomics in predicting the efficacy and shortcomings of nCRT in patients with LARC,aiming to find a new method to predict the efficacy of nCRT more accurately and provide a basis for clinical follow-up treatment.
