Radiology–pathology correlation of endometrial carcinoma assessment on magnetic resonance imaging
Abstract Endometrial carcinoma is the most common gynaecological cancer in developed countries. Most cases are low-volume/low-grade tumour at presentation; however, high-grade subtypes may present with locally advanced disease with higher propensity for spread outside of the pelvis. MRI has a role i...

description | Abstract Endometrial carcinoma is the most common gynaecological cancer in developed countries. Most cases are low-volume/low-grade tumour at presentation; however, high-grade subtypes may present with locally advanced disease with higher propensity for spread outside of the pelvis. MRI has a role in local staging of the tumour and helping the clinicians in treatment decision making. This pictorial essay gives examples of endometrial carcinoma at different stages with histological correlation. It also explores the potential limitations and pitfalls of imaging in this context. |
