Therefore, a precise preoperative evaluation of the characteristics of the disease as well as prognosis may significantly aid in the diagnosis of cervical carcinoma as well as planning of its treatment. The purpose of the study To investigate if the value of apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) could be interpreted as a prognostic indicator to predict cervical cancer aggressiveness prior to management. Results The value of ADC for high- and low-grade cervical cancer was statistically significantly different. Patients with histological grade I had significantly higher ADC in comparison with those with grade II (1.04 ± 0.07 vs. 0.82 ± 0.02 × 10−3 mm2/s; p |
