title: [Value of magnetic resonance imaging of cancers of the uterine cervix and corpus. Preliminary study apropos of 9 cases of cancer of the corpus and 20 cases of cancer of the cervix].
abstract: We studied nine cases of endometrial carcinoma and twenty of cervix carcinoma. Correlation with histology is made after curietherapy in 8 cases of endometrial carcinoma. Tumor is not always seen and particularly when there is no mass effect on macroscopic examination. Myometrial invasion is not seen with accuracy: the interruption of "junctional zone" is not a good sign. The cervix tumors are well seen on T2 sequences before any treatment. There extra uterine extension is difficult to appreciate. The best results of RMI were in the follow-up after radiotherapy. Therefore it appears actually to us the best indication of RMI.
