| Abstract | ||||
| Carcinoma of a cervix is the fourth most frequent gynaecological cancer and fourth most common cause of cancer-related mortality in women in the world. Its incidence was 0.6 million in 2022 with about 342,000 death. According to recents guidelines Ultrasound imaging should be as part of the initial workup to establish the extent of the pelvic tumour and to guide treatment of cervical cancer patients.TV / TR completed with transabdominal ultrasound has the advantage of being readily available at low cost and performed by the treating gynaecologist compared MRI. AIM OF THE WORK: The aim of this work was to determine the role of the ultrasonography and Magnetic Resonnance Imaging in triaging of cervical cancer cases. PATIENTS AND METHODS: This study included 37 cervical cancer patients who consulted the oncology unit of the Obstetrics and Gynecology Department at Alexandria Universityat the Faculty of Medicine. Inclusion criteria: Confirmed histopathology of cervical cancer | ||||
