[Computer tomography for gynaecological carcinomas (authors's transl)].
The morphology of gynaecological cancers was studied by computer tomography in 220 ovarian and uterine carcinomas. The value of the method with regard to staging and diagnosis is discussed. Non-invasive computer tomography for gynaecological cancers is indicated. 1. In order to obtain significant information regarding the extent of the tumour and its regional metastases. 2. In order to reduce the need for other invasive diagnostic measures. 3. For improving treatment by interdisciplinary procedures, particularly with respect to planning of radiation therapy. 4. For the early recognition of recurrences and for objective evaluation of the result of treatment.
