<unk>  is the assessment of cervical cancer to decide how far the disease has progressed. This is important for determining disease prognosis and treatment. Cancer<unk>  generally runs from stage 0, which is pre-cancerous or non-invasive, to stage IV, in which the cancer has spread throughout a significant part of the body. Cervical cancer is staged by the International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics (FIGO)<unk>  system. Prior to the 2018 update, FIGO<unk>  of cervical cancer allowed only the following diagnostic tests to be used in determining the stage: palpation (feeling with the fingers), inspection, colposcopy, endocervical curettage, hysteroscopy, cystoscopy, proctoscopy, intravenous urography, and X-ray examination of the lungs and skeleton, and cervical conization. But with the 2018 update of FIGO<unk>  of cervical cancer, imaging and pathology were added as allowable methods to assess disease stage.
