], T2-weighted (T2W) fast spin-echo (FSE) sequence is the required sequence for gynecology (GYN) BT. Therefore, all analyses were performed on a 2D T2-weighted sequence with the following
parameters: repetition time (TR)=3848 ms; echo time (TE)=90 ms; echo-train length (ETL)=30; voxel dimension=0.45×0.45×2 mm3 with no slice gaps; number of excitations (NEX)=2. Fat Sat pulse was not applied. A 2D image distortion correction algorithm provided by the vendor was utilized for all MR images. Both MR images with and without the applicator were acquired.
CT scans were generated using a 20-slice Siemens SOMATOM Definition AS (Siemens Healthcare, Forchheim, Germany) scanner. Scan parameters included collimation of 192×0.6, tube voltage of 120 kVp, pitch of 0.6, reference mAs of 343,
voxel dimension=0.625×0.625×2 mm3, and reconstruction with a convolution kernel of B30.
