Abstract
Materials and Methods: From June 2017 to June 2018, 70 patients (both new and treated) who were histopathologically diagnosed cases of carcinoma cervix and referred to the Department of Radiodiagnosis, Coimbatore Medical College were included in the study. Conclusion: Magnetic Resonance Imaging scored better than clinical techniques and other imaging methods in staging of carcinoma cervix and assessing its recurrence. Hence, Magnetic Resonance Imaging can be used as a single best investigation for local staging in carcinoma cervix, obviating the need for multiple invasive procedures.
