Advances in MR Functional Imaging and Radiomics for the Assessment of Lymph Node Metastasis in Cervical Cancer
Para-aortic and pelvic lymph node metastases are key factors affecting the prognosis of patients with cervical cancer and play a critical role in the choice of treatment options.Conventional magnetic resonance imaging(MRI)relies on lymph node morphology to detect lymph node metastases,but this method has limitations.Recently,MR functional imaging techniques have been rapidly developed to detect lymph node metastases more accurately at the molecular and cellular levels.As a hot topic in the field of imaging in recent years,radiomics has been widely used in the diagnosis,staging and prognosis of cervical cancer.This article reviews the progress of MR functional imaging and radiomics for the assessment of lymph node metastasis in cervical cancer.
