The Accurate preoperative staging and grading are significant on the treatment of protocol selection rectal adenocarcinoma. As a new molecular MR imaging technique, APT imaging could provide information that correlates with tumor cell proliferation. In this study, the capability of APT in differentiating WHO grades and pathologic stages of rectal adenocarcinoma was investigated and compared with DWI. The results show that APT value have a significantly positive correlation with the stage and grade of the rectal adenocarcinoma, and the prognosis factor Ki67.
