About this trial
Endometrial cancer (EC) is the most common gynecological malignancy in high-income countries. Prognosis and treatment are dictated by cancer histological subtype and grade coupled with surgical staging as described by Surgical International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics (FIGO) staging system. Surgery is the elective standard treatment and used for staging of EC. The purpose of this study is to collect images from a simultaneous PET/MRI study from which to extrapolate a preoperative, non-invasive, prognostic model.
