Several Received 23 May 2016 guidelines suggest different subvolumes and anatomical boundaries in rectal cancer (RC), potentially Received in revised form 7 July 2016 leading to a misunderstanding in the CTV definition. International consensus guidelines (CG) are needed Accepted 23 July 2016 to improve uniformity in RC CTV delineation. Available online 12 August 2016 Material and methods: The 7 radiation oncologist experts defined a roadmap to produce RC CG. Step 1: revision of the published guidelines. Step 2: selection of RC cases with different clinical stages. Step 3: Keywords: delineation of cases using Falcon following previously published guidelines. Step 4: meeting in person Consensus guidelines Rectal cancer to discuss the initial delineation outcome, followed by a CTV proposal based on revised and if needed, Clinical Target Volume delineation adapted anatomical boundaries. Step 5: peer review of the agreed consensus. Step 6: peer review meeting to validate the final outcome. Step 7: completion of RC delineation atlases. Results: A new ontology of structure sets was defined and the related table of anatomical boundaries was generated. The major modifications were about the lateral lymph nodes and the ischio-rectal fossa delin- eation. Seven RC cases were made available online as consultation atlases. Conclusion: The definition of international CG for RC delineation endorsed by international experts might Valentini V. et al.

The validation of the technique was carried out through a preoperative study and is now explored as part of a radical treatment for early rectal cancer or as a boost modality.
