Correlation between abdominal computed tomography signs and postoperative prognosis for patients with colorectal cancer

Figure 2 Computed tomography image of a 63-year-old female patient with colorectal cancer. A: Plain computed tomography (CT) scan. The wall of the upper rectum was eccentrically thickened, and the CT value of the soft tissue mass was approximately 42 HU; B: Enhanced CT. The blurring of fat in the mesorectum and enhancement of the cord (indicated by the orange arrow) closest to the rectal fascia were approximately 5 mm away (indicated by the yellow arrow).
