Chapter 7 assesses the role of radiation therapy in rectal cancer, with emphasis on preoperative imaging, patient selection for preoperative chemoradiotherapy (CRT) and short-course preoperative radiotherapy (SCPRT), and postoperative chemoradiation. We describe the various available planning techniques. More conformal techniques such as intensity-modulated radiotherapy (IMRT), volume-modulated arc therapy (VMAT), and brachytherapy are also described. In addition, chemoradiation and radiotherapy as an adjunct to local excision and endoluminal irradiation are also reviewed.
