The importance of myometrial invasion in relation to the prognosis of cervical cancer is wellknown (Prempree et al. 1982), although it is not included in the FIGO staging classification. A sagittal 7 2-weighted image can reveal the extent of tumour invasion into the myometrium which may not be apparent at the time of an examination under anaesthesia.
