The value of amide proton transfer imaging in predicting parametrial invasion and lymph-vascular space invasion of cervical cancer.

Objective: To explore the value of amide proton transfer (APT) imaging in assessing parametrial invasion (PMI) and lymph-vascular space invasion (LVSI) of cervical cancer.

Materials And Methods: We retrospectively analyzed the clinical and imaging data of cervical cancer patients diagnosed pathologically at our hospital from January 2021 to June 2024. All patients underwent routine magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI), and APT imaging before treatment.
