| Sumario: | <p id="p1">Cervical cancer is a common gynecological cancer worldwide. The use of imaging modalities for pre-treatment workups for cervical cancer is growing. Ultrasound is less expensive, faster, and more generally available than other imaging modalities for the evaluation of cervical cancer. It is also a portable imaging radiological imaging modality. The clinical application of ultrasonography in cervical cancer has been improved by sophisticated ultrasonography techniques. Ultrasound provides very precise information on the presence of tumors and the extent of localized tumors. It is also important for precise preoperative staging and assessing treatment response. In this chapter, the role of ultrasound in assessing cervical cancer will be discussed.</p> |
