Abstract:
Cervical cancer remains a significant contributor to morbidity and mortality for women globally despite medical advances in preventative medicine and treatment. The 2018 Internal Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics committee modified their original 2009 staging scheme to incorporate advanced imaging modalities, where available, to increase the accuracy of staging and to guide evolving treatments. Having a robust understanding of the newest staging iteration, its consequences on treatment pathways, and common imaging pitfalls will aid the radiologist in generating valuable and practical reports to optimize treatment strategies.

Radionuclide Testing
Radionuclide testing is a sophisticated medical technique for assessing gastrointestinal motility. It focuses on gastric emptying and colonic transit time. Radioactive markers track the movement of food through the digestive system, providing insights into gastrointestinal disorders.
In gastric emptying studies, a meal's liquid and...
