Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
- Exploration of the diagnostic value of anatomical and functional MRI and PET-CT in the evaluation of treatment response to nCRT for patients with esophageal cancer, as compared to the pathological specimen as gold standard.

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
- Assessment of the optimal (MRI and PET-CT) imaging parameters that correlate best with pathological response. - Assessment of the optimal timing for the imaging series. - Assessment of the diagnostic value of MRI for post-nCRT restaging of T- and N-stage as compared to histopathology. - Assessment of the experienced burden for the patient associated with extra MRI and PET-CT scanning in the clinical work-up for esophageal cancer.
