Accuracy of preoperative staging with multidetector computed tomography in colon cancer

Multidetector computed tomography (MDCT) is the main preoperative decision‐making tool in colon cancer treatment, thus the validation of daily clinical practice is warranted. The only published study validating the accuracy of MDCT in a national cohort was performed more than a decade ago. With neoadjuvant chemotherapy for patients with preoperatively assessed locally advanced cancer and the emergence of other personalized treatments we aimed to validate the accuracy of MDCT in a national cohort.
