Incorporation of contrast-enhanced CT, [18F]-FDG-PET/CT and MRI into the FIGO classification strengthens its prognostic role in patients with locally advanced cervical cancer by providing a more complete clinical assessment

    In a study from Abdominal Radiology, multimodal imaging consisting of contrast-enhanced CT, [18F]-FDG-PET/CT and MRI increased the prognostic power of the FIGO classification for patients with locally advanced cervical cancer by improving the prediction of recurrence-free survival and overall survival achieved with chemoradiotherapy.
