Role of magnetic resonance imaging in the diagnosis of recurrent cancer of the cervix uteri by Z. N. Shavladze, T. P. Berezovskaya, A. A. Proshin, L. I. Krikunova, L. S. Mkrtchyan

“…Out of the 82 patients with invasive CCU, 25 were found to have pelvic recurrences; in 23 cases MRI revealed the latter (in the cervix uteri (n = 6), corpus uteri (n = 2), vagina (n = 2), parametrium (n = 2), iliac (n = 10), paraaortic (n = 5) lymph nodes, and pelvic wall (n=5).Conclusion. The findings suggest that pelvic MRI is an effective technique to detect and estimate the extent of a pelvic recurrence and it is expedient to incorporate it into the scope of a follow-up after radiation therapy and chemoradiation therapy in patients with invasive CCU.…”
