Diagnostic Value of Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI), Computed Tomography
(CT) and Positron Emission Tomography (PET) in the Detection of Lymph Node
Metastases in Gynaecologic Cancers
Abstract:Background: A factor that affects the staging of gynaecological cancers is the status of adenopathy’s and imaging tests are a
fundamental part of staging.
Primary Objective: To assess the sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value (PPV) and negative predictive value (NPV) in the
detection of pathological lymphadenopathies in gynaecological cancers of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), computerized axial
tomography (CAT) and positrons emission tomography (PET).
Study Hypothesis: Imaging tests are not as… Show more
