Summary

This study tested a special scope called LUMENEYE to see if it can better measure how well rectal cancer responds to chemotherapy and radiation. 82 patients who were good candidates for organ preservation took part. The goal was to see if the scope could accurately identify complete or near-complete tumor shrinkage, helping doctors decide who might avoid surgery.
