CT in general is not very useful in assessment of the primary tumour, but it can be useful in assessing advanced disease. It is performed primarily to assess [[adenopathy]], but also has roles in defining advanced disease, monitoring distant metastasis, planning the placement of radiation ports, and guiding percutaneous biopsy. On CT, the primary tumor can be hypoenhancing or isoenhancing to normal cervical stroma (~50%).<ref>http://www.cancer.gov/types/cervical/hp/cervical-treatment-pdq#link/_396_toc</ref>
