Figure 2. Time needed to perform Fusion imaging from the first to the last examination. Conclusion Combination of real time Fusion imaging is feasible in cervical cancer. Fusion imaging could be used as a complementary technique to MRI and TVUS to enhance the diagnostic performance of the single method. Objectives To evaluate the feasibility of Fusion of MRI and Transvaginal ultrasound (TVUS) in assessing Locally Advanced Cervical Cancer (LACC) patients.
