The Added Role of MR Imaging in Treatment Stratification of Patients with Gynecologic Malignancies: What the Radiologist Needs to Know
TLDR
The purpose of this review is to highlight the added role of MR imaging in the treatment stratification and overall care of patients with endometrial, cervical, or ovarian cancer.Abstract:
Advances in MR imaging techniques, along with the growing role of the radiologist as part of a multidisciplinary treatment-planning team, have become central in tailoring treatment options and frequently lead to modifications in the therapeutic approach in patients with gynecologic malignancies.read more

Uterine sarcomas: clinical presentation and MRI features
TL;DR: Clinical features of uterine sarcomas are discussed, as well as their most common appearances and distinct characteristics in MRI, which help differentiate from more common leiomyomas and endometrial carcinoma.

TL;DR: Radiogenomics aims to correlate imaging characteristics with gene expression patterns, gene mutations, and other genome‐related characteristics and is designed to facilitate a deeper understanding of tumor biology and capture the intrinsic tumor heterogeneity.

MR diffusion imaging for preoperative staging of myometrial invasion in patients with endometrial cancer: a systematic review and meta-analysis
Anita Andreano,Gilda Rechichi,Paola Rebora,Sandro Sironi,Maria Grazia Valsecchi,Stefania Galimberti +5 more
TL;DR: A meta-analysis shows that DCE and DW do not differ in diagnostic accuracy, and MR diagnostic accuracy in presurgical detection of deep myometrial infiltration in endometrial cancer is high.

PET/MRI and PET/CT in advanced gynaecological tumours: initial experience and comparison
Marcelo Queiroz,Rahel A. Kubik-Huch,Nik Hauser,Bianka K. Freiwald-Chilla,Gustav K. von Schulthess,Johannes M. Froehlich,Patrick Veit-Haibach +6 more
TL;DR: PET/MRI is superior to PET/CT for primary tumour delineation and might be the preferred imaging modality for staging cervical and endometrial tumours and whole-body staging for detection and evaluation of extra-abdominal metastases is mandatory.

The value of advanced MRI techniques in the assessment of cervical cancer: a review
Evelyn Dappa,Tania Elger,Annette Hasenburg,Christoph Düber,Marco Johannes Battista,Andreas M. Hötker +5 more
TL;DR: New advanced MRI techniques can improve TNM staging and show promise for tumour classification and for assessing the risk of tumour recurrence and may be helpful for developing optimised and personalised therapy for patients with cervical cancer.

Staging of Gynecologic Malignancies
TL;DR: MRI staging is an adjunct to clinical and surgical staging in women with cervical or endometrial cancer, respectively and for women with possible adnexal pathology, MRI is useful for lesion characterization.

Role of primary surgery in advanced ovarian cancer
TL;DR: Optimal surgical interventions have definite role to play in advanced ovarian cancers and improvements in surgical treatment in the general population will probably improve patients' survival when coupled with improvements in current chemotherapeutic approaches.
