We are studying how imaging can be used to improve the accuracy of how a tumour is classified. This will give us a better understanding of how different tumours behave. We will perform the standard imaging tests and patients will have same operation. The only difference is how the bowel specimen is processed in the laboratory. We will take photographs of the bowel after it has been cut into slices and match this up with the scans.
