Magnetic resonance tomography was carried out in 355 patients with gynecologic tumors: cancer of the cervix uteri (n = 75), endometrial cancer (n = 75), ovarian tumors (n = 205, 102 with benign and 103 with malignant tumors). The diagnosis was confirmed by histologic examinations of biopsy specimens or intraoperative material in all the cases. To compare the efficacies of various diagnostic methods, ultrasonic examinations were carried out in all the 355 patients, and in 45 of them computer-aided tomography (in 15 patients with cancer of the cervix uteri, in 15 with endometrial cancer, and in 15 with ovarian cancer). Magnetic resonance tomography helped specify the diagnosis and degree of the process dissemination, chose an adequate method of treatment, monitor its course, and follow-up the patients after the treatment.
