Quantitative T2 and PD values obtained by synthetic magnetic resonance imaging might be used for evaluating prognostic factors of rectal cancer noninvasively. Furthermore, combining T2 and PD values further improved the diagnostic performance of magnetic resonance imaging N staging in rectal cancer. The ADC and T1 values were not significant in the differentiation or clinical stage of RC.
