Intervention/exposure
Study type
Interventional
Description of intervention(s) / exposure
Patients undergoing a well defined regimen of neoadjuvant radio-chemotherapy consisting of three cycles of intrevenously administered Cisplatin/Oxaliplatin-5-FU and external beam radiation therapy with a total dose of 40 Gy given in fractions. Patientents will undergo hybrid SPECT/CT lymphoscintigraphy by means of endoscopically guided intratumoral injection of radiocolloid (4 X 0.5 mL in total of 60 MBq 99mTc-nanocoll (GE Healthcare Srl., Milan, Italy)). Patients undergo this procedure the week prior to and once again immediatly following conclusion of neoadjuvant therapy.
