Synopsis

The proper evaluation of pathological features including differentiation degree, deep stromal invasion (DSI) and vascular space invasion (VSI) is vital for patients with cervical cancer. Amide Proton Transfer (APTW) and Dynamic Contrast-Enhanced MRI (DCE-MRI) were used to predict tumor differentiation, DSI and VSI. Results showed that combined APTW and DCE-MRI predicted VSI with good performance. Therefore, combination of APTW and DCE-MRI is potentially a promising and valuable non-invasive method in detection for predicting VSI.
