From: Combinative evaluation of primary tumor and lymph nodes to predict pelvic lymphatic metastasis in cervical cancer: an integrated PET-IVIM MRI study

Fig. 4

Fifty-nine years-old female patient diagnosed moderately differentiated, squamous cervical carcinoma, with no suspected lymph node metastasis showed on preoperative PET/MR, but it showed metastatic on postoperative pathology. The primary tumor has concentrated FDG uptakes on PET/MR fusion images (SUVmax = 11.68 g/cm3, SUVmean = 7.92 g/cm3, TLG = 79.99 g, MTV = 10.1 cm3), and the ADC and IVIM image showed a high signal in the tumor (ADCmean = 1.21 × 10− 3 mm2/s, ADCmin = 0.7 × 10− 3 mm2/s, Dmean = 0.87 × 10− 3 mm2/s, Dmin = 0.5 × 10− 3 mm2/s, D* = 56.93 × 10− 3 mm2/s, f = 0.17)
