StagingFeatures

Stage IThe tumor cells were found in the uterus only, and fat-suppressing T2W1 can accurately measure the depth of uterine tumor myometrial invasion
Stage IaThe tumor cells were found in the endometrium or invaded no more than half of the myometrium only
Stage IbThe tumor cells invaded more than half of the myometrium
Stage IIThe tumor cells invaded the cervix without extracorporeal extension of the uterus
Stage IIaThe myometrium showed discontinues outer edge, and the tumor extended beyond the contour of the uterus
Stage IIbThis period was characterized by destruction of the cervical fibrous stromal ring
Stage III and Stage IVThe parametrial tissue and organ were affected with obvious changes in their signals
Stage IIIThe tumor cells invaded uterine serosa, adnexa, and vagina. Regional lymph node metastasis was found
Stage IVThe tumor cells invaded the bladder and rectum and metastased to distant organs
