Abstract: Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) can  form a threedimensional positioning anatomical imaging.By comparing the tumor volume and signal intensity changes, there is great value of MRI in the assessment of the efficacy of cervical cancer. With the development of imaging, magnetic resonance diffusion weighted imaging (DWI), magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS) can provide qualitative and quantitative information of the cellular level, which reflects changes in the treatment of tumor cells. Magnetic resonance imaging can predict early locally advanced cervical cancer neoadjuvant chemotherapy, thus providing an important basis for individualized treatment of patients.
