Added Value of Diffusion-Weighted Imaging in Endometrial Cancer

Endometrial cancer is the most common gynecological malignancy in developed countries with a rising incidence mainly related to obesity. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) has been recognized to be the gold standard imaging modality to accurately assess tumor staging and help stratify patient treatment. In this review, we will discuss the advantages and challenges of MRI staging of endometrial cancer with a particular focus on the MRI acquisition protocol and the role of diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI).
