DCE-MRI can provide prognostic information on locally advanced cervix carcinomas. Most studies have emphasis on the early phase of the Signal Intensity Time Curve (SITC). The purpose of this study was to explore the prognostic value of the late phase of the SITC and to reveal any added value to that of parameters from the early phase. Both the early phase parameter LETV and the late phase parameter TVIS was associated with overall survival. The association was independent of clinical factors like tumor volume, FIGO stage and lymph node status. TVIS did not provide any added prognostic value to LETV.
