Oesophageal cancer: ESMO Clinical Practice Guidelines for diagnosis, treatment and follow-up
TLDR
In the EU, the highest age-standardised incidence rates for oesophageal cancer are in the Netherlands for men and the UK for women, and variation between countries is high and may reflect different prevalence of risk factors, use of screening and diagnostic methods.About:

The Effect of the Appropriate Timing of Radiotherapy on Survival Benefit in Patients with Metastatic Esophageal Cancer Who Have Undergone Resection of Primary Site: A SEER Database Analysis
TL;DR: For patients with MEC, preoperative radiotherapy might have a significant effect on the survival benefit over those who receive postoperatively radiotherapy, according to the cancer-specific survival (CSS) between the two groups.

The Role of MRI and PET/CT in Radiotherapy Target Volume Determination in Gastrointestinal Cancers—Review of the Literature
TL;DR: The role of PET/CT and MRI in radiotherapy treatment planning for anal, esophageal, rectal and pancreatic cancer was summarized in this article , where they reported interobserver variability or changes in treatment planning volume due to different imaging modalities or correlation between the imaging modality and histopathologic specimen.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated the impact of the neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio on esophageal cancer survival and recurrence after curative treatment and found that neutrophils to lymphocytes ratio of 2.38 was the optimal critical point of classification considering the 1-year, 3-year and 5-year survival rate.
