The role of MR imaging in invasive cervical carcinoma

E A Boss et al. Eur Radiol. 2000.

Abstract

In this article the role of MR imaging in the management of cervical cancer is reviewed and illustrated. The appearance of the normal uterine cervix and of cervical carcinoma is shown. Important factors for optimal MR imaging of cervical carcinoma are reviewed. The value of MR imaging in the staging of cervical carcinoma is illustrated by showing parametrial invasion and lymph node involvement. Finally, the value of MR imaging staging is compared with clinical staging, CT staging, and surgical findings. The role of new imaging techniques, such as fast dynamic enhanced MR imaging, is described.
