Notes: Summary The total of 160 patients with newly diagnosed invasive cancer of the cervix had whole body radioisotope bone scanning during staging of their disease. 51 patients had cancer of the cervix stage I, 63 had stage II, 34 stage III and 12 stage IV (FIGO). Only in 8 of 160 patients did the bone scans indicate possible metastases and this was confirmed by X-ray examination in only one patient with stage IV disease and liver metastases. We conclude that patients with stage I and stage II carcinoma of the cervix do not need to have bone scans.
