This week, we incorporate medical oncology back into our discussion with our Radiation Oncologist, Dr. Sanford, and our Surgical Oncologist, Dr. Bailey. We discuss how we approach the management of localized rectal cancer. Note that we will be heavily building off our discussions with our specialist. We recommend listening to these episodes if you have not done so already.

Content:

- What information do we need upfront for patients with newly diagnosed rectal cancer?

- How did we get to the current treatment paradigm?

- What is the data for long course vs. short course radiation?

- What is total neoadjuvant therapy?

- What are high risk features in rectal cancer?

- Is surgery always needed?

- Is radiation therapy always needed?
