Preoperative assessment of tumor size by MRI and ultrasound in cervical cancer: a large-scale retrospective comparative study
While MRI exhibited a lower measurement error compared to ultrasound, both modalities showed comparable performance in tumor size staging. Furthermore, for tumors exceeding 40 mm in diameter as determined by preoperative imaging, clinicians are advised to integrate clinical examination to enhance the accuracy of staging.
