Preoperative tumor texture analysis on MRI predicts high-risk disease and reduced survival in endometrial cancer.
Improved methods for preoperative risk stratification in endometrial cancer are highly requested by gynecologists. Texture analysis is a method for quantification of heterogeneity in images, increasingly reported as a promising diagnostic tool in various cancer types, but largely unexplored in endometrial cancer. ⋯ 2 Technical Efficacy: Stage 2 J. Magn. Reson. Imaging 2018;48:1637-1647.
