Cross-sectional imaging techniques including magnetic resonance tomography (MRI) and computed tomography (CT) have experienced rapid development in the last decades and play a key role today in imaging benign and malignant colorectal disease, facilitating risk stratification, and procedural planning. In particular, visualization of the intestinal wall and adjacent structures enables detection of extraluminal and extraintestinal pathologies and complications.This chapter systematically summarizes the most common benign and malignant conditions of the colon and rectum that can be diagnosed by CT and MRI.

To evaluate the current status of the diagnosis of gastrointestinal tumors in Germany by means of a survey of the oncological imaging working group of the German Radiological Society (DRG) with a focus on the CT protocols being used.Radiologists working in outpatient or inpatient care in Germany were invited. The survey was conducted between 10/2022 and 06/2023 using the SurveyMonkey web tool. Questions related to gastrointestinal cancer were asked with regard to the commonly used imaging modalities, body coverage, and contrast agent phases in CT as well as the use of oral or rectal contrast. The results of the survey were analyzed using descriptive statistics.Clear differences were identified regarding the acquired contrast phases in relation to the place of work – outpatient care, smaller hospitals, maximum care hospitals, or university hospitals. Variances were also recognized regarding oral and rectal contrast. Based on the results and international guidelines, proposals for CT protocols were derived.CT protocols in Germany show a heterogeneous picture regarding acquired contrast phases, as well as oral and rectal contrast for the staging of gastrointestinal cancer. Clear recommendations in the respective guidelines would aid in quality assurance and comparability between different centers.
