Abstract
Objective: Calculating the value of MRI in determining the lymph node metastasis of rectal cancer. Subject and method: 50 patients with definitive diagnosis as rectal cancer, who underwent surgery at 103 Military Hospital and Vietduc Hospital from Mar. 2018 to Feb. 2019. Comparison of N staging by MRI and N staging postoperatively with Kappa and matrix table 2 × 2. Comparison of the number of malignant lymph node on MRI and those postoperatively with ICC. Result: Medium correlation between the number of malignant lymph node on MRI and those postoperatively, ICC = 0.489. Medium correlation between N staging by MRI and those postoperatively, K = 0.486. Overall, accuracy of MRI in N staging were 66%. Conclusion: MRI is moderate for determining N staging of rectal cancer.
