Popis: Endometrial cancer is one of the most common gynecological malignancies, especially in high-income regions of the world, and its incidence rates have continued to increase over the past decade. Its staging is surgical, with treatment planning based on the FIGO stage and histological subtype and grade. Imaging is obligatory in the diagnostic work-up process in order to allow more tailored treatment. Magnetic resonance tomography is the preferred imaging modality that may be used to aid in the preoperative risk stratification, surgical planning and individualized therapy.
