Imaging of Vaginal and Vulvar Malignancy

Vaginal and vulvar malignancies are rare gynecologic malignancies but can be associated with high morbidity and mortality if undiagnosed and untreated. Advanced imaging modalities such as MRI enable assessment of the local extent of disease and evaluation for regional or distant spread. Accurate identification and description of the primary lesion and sites of involvement as well as detection and localization of suspicious lymph nodes are critical in guiding appropriate management. Additionally, radiologists should be aware of potential mimickers on imaging and the differential diagnoses for vaginal and vulvar lesions.
