Abstract:
The incidence of esophageal cancer ranks third among all malignant tumors in China. Neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy followed by radical surgery is the standard treatment for locally advanced esophageal cancer. Whether the tumor lesions can achieve complete pathological remission after neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy provide profound guidance for subsequent treatment. In this article, research progresses on the application of pathological, radiological and biological approaches to evaluate and predict the tumor response to neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy were reviewed.
