Results: During this period total number of 42 patients were chosen for study in whom FIGO staging and MRI staging was correlated, most of them under went surgery for stage IA to stage IIA. The patients in whom there was disparity between FIGO staging and MRI staging, Histopathological staging could be best correlated with MRI staging.
