Assessment of SCT Multiplanar Reformation in Dignosing and Staging of Cervical Cancer / 实用放射学杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective To evaluate the value of multiplanar reconstruction (MPR) of spiral CT in diagnosing and staging of cervical cancer .Methods SCT scan with a 3～5 mm collimation thickness and MPR in 1.5～2.5 mm reconstruction interval were performed in 20 patients with cervical cancer , confirmed by biopsy pathology. Results The sagittal imaging could show entirely the growing character of a carcinomal mass;the coronal and transverse imagings showed clearly parametrial invasion and pelvic lymph node metastases. Conclusion MPR images in the pelvic could show entirely the character of growing and invasion of a carcinomal mass. It is an important value in dignosing and staging of cervical cancer.
