** 2D T2W sequences in 3 planes
** DWI sequence (at least a high b-value of ≥800)
* DWI images (including and ADC maps) should mainly be assessed visually
** Quantitative ADC measurements are not routinely advised
* DWI is recommended for restaging of the yT-stage.
* FS, T1W (non-enhanced and contrast-enhanced) and DCE sequences are not routinely recommended
* Slice thickness ≤3 mm (axial and coronal T2W)
'''Sequence angulation'''
'''Sequence angulation'''All tumours:
* Transverse sequences: perpedicular to the rectal tumour axis
* Coronal sequences: parallel to the rectal tumour axis
Distal tumours:* Coronal Include coronal sequence parallel to the anal canal: should be included in distal tumours to assess the relation between tumour and anal sphincter
