Preoperative imaging of uterine malignancy: A low-value service

Preoperative CT or MRI is of low value in predicting extra-uterine disease among uterine cancer patients with low grade disease. Women with low grade disease had false positive results more frequently than true detection of extrauterine disease. Abnormal imaging findings are more common and predictive of extrauterine disease in women with grade 3 or non-endometrioid histology but the value of these scans remains unclear.
