Computed tomography (CT) scan of clinical stage IIb cervical carcinoma (same patient in Images 4-5 in Multimedia). The parametrial invasion is depicted with CT scanning as loss of definition of the cervical contours, accompanied by increased attenuation and prominent soft-tissue stranding in the parametrial fat. Parametritis can result in similar findings. The cervix shows ill-defined hypoattenuation, but the tumor is not clearly delineated. In addition, a subserosal leiomyoma protrudes from the left side of the uterus.
