Concordance of Imaging and Pathology Diagnosis of Extranodal Tumour Deposits

Any patient with a suspected primary adenocarcinoma of the colon, sigmoid or rectum undergoing surgery are eligible. The date of surgery must be known prior to registration. This trial aims to determine if image mapping techniques can improve the concordance between imaging and pathology detection of tumour deposits. Lymph nodes and tumour deposits will be identified on pre-operative scans and mapped by radiologists then shared with pathologists prior to processing the resected specimen. Patients will be managed at their local hospital with standard follow-up. Patients will be followed up for 5 years.
