A member asked:
Does "circumferential" thickening in rectal wall suggest cancer?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Rectal wall: You obviously have received this from a report. It would be much better to get an explanation from the Physician who ordered the report and has a full understanding of the clinical history that goes along with the report.
