Computed tomography in evaluation of gynecologic malignancies: a retrospective analysis.

Abstract:

:The results of preoperative computed tomography and operative findings were assessed retrospectively in 52 patients with cervical, uterine, and ovarian neoplasms. Overall sensitivity and specificity for all disease states was 57% and 79%, respectively. Overall diagnostic accuracy was 69%. The use of computed tomography was felt to be helpful in evaluation of lymphadenopathy due to cervical cancer and in patients with suspected ovarian neoplasms. In uterine neoplasms, however, computed tomography did not add useful information.
