MRI and FDG-PET/CT imaging in gynecological malignancies: the radiation oncology perspective

Jamina Fennell et al. Q J Nucl Med Mol Imaging. 2016 Jun.

Abstract

MRI and FDG-PET imaging plays an important role in diagnosis, monitoring and follow-up of gynecological cancer. The goal of this paper was to summarize data of the literature about sensitivity and specificity of MRI and FDG-PET/CT for detection of primary tumor, lymph nodes invasion and metastases in cervix and endometrial cancer and to discuss their implication for radiation treatment planning and monitoring.
