Computed tomographic scanning is currently the main imaging modality used to detect recurrent cancer of the gastrointestinal tract. Additional studies such as MR imaging, ultrasound, and immunoscintigraphy provide complementary information. Further research is needed so that these studies can be applied in a cost-effective manner that has a positive impact on clinical outcomes.
