Abstract

Objective: to study the possibilities of ultrasound using modern technologies in monitoring the effectiveness of radiation therapy of cervical cancer.

Materials and methods. The results of observations of 96 patients were analyzed.

Results. Thirty-seven patients were diagnosed with recurrences and metastases of cervical cancer, and 59 patients were determined the criteria of full therapeutic effect.

Conclusions. Multiparametric ultrasound is a highly informative method that allows diagnosing both the progression of the disease and the full therapeutic effect after radiation therapy of patients diagnosed with cervical cancer.
