Cervical cancer is one of commonest gynecological cancers worldwide in which early diagnosis is very essential. For also detecting the the lesion and the staging the disease, radiological imaging modalities especially MRI are very useful. Lesions’ size, distance between internal cervical os and the edge of the lesion, invasion of parametrium, involvement of vagina, hydronephrosis, [...]

    Cervical cancer is one of commonest gynecological cancers worldwide in which early diagnosis is very essential. For also detecting the the lesion and the staging the disease, radiological imaging modalities especially MRI are very useful. Lesions’ size, distance between internal cervical os and the edge of the lesion, invasion of parametrium, involvement of vagina, hydronephrosis, pelvic lateral side-wall invasion, rectum and bladder involvement , pelvic and/or para-aortic lymph node involvement are the major conditions must be evaluated on radiological examinations which change the grade and also the treatment options of the disease.
