Imaging has become an important adjunct to the clinical assessment of uterine cancer, specially magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) studies. In cervical cancer, the two areas in which MRI is superior to other diagnostic imaging modalities are local diseases staging and evaluation for local recurrence. MRI is an integral part in staging the primary tumour, monitoring responce to treatment, detecting complications and recurrence, and in planning radiotheraphy. MRI has a crucial role in the development of fertility-sparing surgery in young women with cervical cancer. Imaging continually evolves in response to changes in clinical practice and technologic improvements. The choice of imaging modality is not only case specific but also depends of the radiologic experience and equipment availability.
影像学已成为子宫癌临床评估的重要辅助手段，尤其是磁共振成像（MRI）研究。在宫颈癌中，MRI优于其他诊断成像方式的两个方面是局部疾病分期和局部复发评估。MRI是原发性肿瘤分期、监测治疗反应、检测并发症和复发以及规划放射治疗的重要组成部分。MRI在年轻宫颈癌患者保留生育功能手术的发展中起着关键作用。影像学随着临床实践的变化和技术的进步不断发展。成像方式的选择不仅因病例而异，还取决于放射学经验和设备可用性。
