Abstract

Objective To study the imaging manifestations and diagnostic value of ultrasound and MRI in cervical cancer. Methods 57 cases of cervical cancer patients admitted into the jospital from June 2012 to June 2015 were studied and all patients received transvaginal color doppler ultrasound and MRI examination. The diagnostic accuracy was compared between the two groups. Results The diagnostic accurate rates of ultrasound, MRI and joint inspection were 78.9%, 86.0% and 93.0%, respectively which of the joint inspection was the highest. The differences in accurate rate and MRI were not significant, but the accuracy was significantly higher than that of ultrasonic examination and the comparison was statistically significant (P<0.05). Conclusion Ultrasound and MRI in the clinical diagnosis of cervical cancer is of great value while MRI is more accurate, which can effectively determine the clinical staging and treatment plan. For the highly suspected cases, the diagnostic accuracy can be further improved through the joint inspection.
