Summary

Endometrial and cervical cancers are one of the most common malignancies seen in females. Identification of recurrent disease in early phases of treatment carries a primary importance on the outcome of patients. Diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging (DWI) is a new technique recently started to be performed in body imaging and has potential ability to detect recurrent disease. The aim of this study is to investigate the diagnostic impact of DWI in detection of recurrent disease in patients treated with curative surgery in endometrial and cervical cancer.

DEVICE

Diffusion weighted MRI (DW- MRI)- Philips Achieva 3.0T X, Netherlands, 2011

Recurrence in cervical and endometrial cancer patients who were treated with curative surgery is routinely investigated by MRI examination. MRI is diagnostic technique not requiring ionizing radiation and is based on magnetic fields.
