Comparison of accuracy and long ‐term prognosis between computed tomography‐based and magnetic resonance imaging‐based brachytherapy for cervical cancer: A meta‐analysis
In conclusion, MRI provides goo d anatomical delineation of the relevant HR‐CTV and OAR, and performed better in the analyses of dose parameters compared with CT. At least one MR image is required to assess the tumour extension, with clinical findings and MRI information facilitating much more accurate CT‐based contouring.
