title: [X-ray computed tomography of cancers of the uterine body (stages I and II). Anatomopathologic correlations. Apropos of 25 cases].
abstract: Twenty-five patients with endometrial cancer of body of uterus were examined by CT before and after intravenous administration of contrast medium. Hypodensity was noted before injection and was accentuated after injection in 4 cases, was observed after injection only in 9 and was totally absent in 12 cases. Comparison of findings with results of examination of frozen specimens indicated lack of correlation between size of tumor and depth to which myometrium was invaded, and results of CT imaging.
