Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
To compare tumor volume with DOI for predicting cervical nodal burden.Timepoint: june 2020 to june 2021—

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
1. To estimate threshold for tumor volume above which chances of nodal metastases significantly increase. 2. To find out correlation of tumor volume with other histologic prognostic factors (tumor grade, PNI, LVI, ENE). Timepoint: june 2020 to june 2021—
