Uterine Cancer Imaging: ESUR Practice Recommendations

European Radiology6d ago

MRI with multiparametric protocol (T2, DWI, DCE) is the imaging modality of choice for uterine cancer staging per ESUR recommendations; FDG-PET complements cervical cancer evaluation for nodal/distant metastases.

  • ESUR recommends dedicated multiparametric MRI protocols including high-resolution T2-weighted imaging, DWI, and DCE when appropriate for uterine malignancies.
  • FDG-PET offers the highest accuracy for detecting lymph-node and distant metastases in cervical cancer.
  • This practical guide covers indications like staging, fertility preservation, and characterization of indeterminate myometrial lesions.
