CT scan and MRI inconclusive: Perirectal mass?

My CT scan showed that my colon was clear. My colonoscopy and subsequent surgery discovered a tumor, the size of a baseball that did not show up on the CT scan. I’ve been told it’s because it was in an odd place. No one to my satisfaction has ever explained it.

It's amazing how things can be missed! I was hoping my MRI would give me a definitive answer, but when the radiologist put the statement "correlate with direct visualization" has me like i'm still not out of the woods yet.

Thank you for replying and I hope you are doing well.
