Background: For locally advanced cervical cancer (LACC), treatment response to radiotherapy (RT) can vary significantly even among those with the same stage classification of International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics (FIGO). This study investigated the value of ADC metric for forecasting end-of-treatment outcomes in LACC patients referred for RT. Methods: Eighty patients with pathologically confirmed cervical squamous cell carcinoma with (SCC) were included in the research. Abdominal or pelvic MRI scans were conducted at least three times for all participants: before RT, three weeks after beginning of RT and approximately two months after RT was finalized. Calculated apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) values of the LACC include: pre-ADC, interim-ADC, ΔADC and Δ%ADC. Based on Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) 1.1, subjects were calculated and subsequently categorized into good responders group (complete response) and poor responders group (progressive disease, stable disease or partial response). Results: Compared to good-responders, subjects of poor-responder group showed significantly lower values of interim-ADC, ΔADC, and Δ%ADC (all P |
