Abstract

MRI is the method of choice for the evaluation of endometrial carcinomas (ECs), from detection to evaluation of recurrent disease. Although the staging of ECs is done surgically using the system of the International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics (FIGO), preoperative assessment based on imaging findings helps in risk stratification and decision-making. The main parameters evaluated include the degree and depth of myometrial invasion, parametrial extent, and cervical stromal infiltration. The combination of T2-weighted imaging, dynamic contrast-enhanced MRI, and diffusion-weighted imaging increases the accuracy of EC diagnosis and staging.
