The aim of the Female Pelvic Imaging Working Group of the European Society of Urogenital Radiology (ESUR) was to develop imaging staging guidelines for vulvar cancer and to propose standardised MRI protocols and reporting.
The guidelines recommended from the ESUR in this article resulted from a questionnaire analysis regarding imaging staging of vulvar cancer that was answered by all members of the Female Pelvic Imaging Working Group. Only the answers with an agreement equal to or more than 80% were considered. Additionally, the literature was reviewed to complement and further support our conclusions.
The critical review of the literature and consensus obtained among experts allows for recommendations regarding imaging staging guidelines, patient preparation, MRI protocol, and a structured MRI report.
Standardising image acquisition techniques and MRI interpretation reduces ambiguity and ultimately improves the contribution of radiology to the staging and management of patients with vulvar cancer. Moreover, structured reporting assists with the communication of clinically relevant information to the referring physician.
欧洲泌尿生殖放射学会（ESUR）女性盆腔影像工作组的目标是制定外阴癌的影像分期指南，并提出标准化的MRI检查方案和报告。
本文中ESUR推荐的指南源于一项关于外阴癌影像分期的问卷调查分析，女性盆腔影像工作组的所有成员都参与了回答。仅考虑那些同意率等于或超过80%的答案。此外，还查阅了文献以补充和进一步支持我们的结论。
对文献的严格审查以及专家间达成的共识，使得我们能够就影像分期指南、患者准备、MRI检查方案以及结构化MRI报告提出建议。
标准化图像采集技术和MRI解读可减少模糊性，并最终提高放射学在外阴癌患者分期和管理中的作用。此外，结构化报告有助于向转诊医生传达临床相关信息。
