•1. Females older than 18 years; (no upper limit)
•2. Patients with histologically confirmed cancer of the cervix or endometrium
•2.1. demonstrated clinically and/or on MRI. In patients with advanced disease being considered for chemoradiotherapy treatment, patients may be considered for entry if paraaortic nodal lymphadenectomy is being used to inform radiotherapy planning
•2.2. In patients with endometrial cancer, a) stage 1A with myometrial invasion or any higher stage and grade 3 histology with lymphovascular space invasion, b) stage 1A with myometrial invasion or any other higher stage and serous papillary or clear cell subtypes. The MDT decision may be based on the combination of tumour characteristics on histology, clinical and imaging findings.
•3. No contraindication to FDGPET/CT, FECPET/ CT or MRI
•4. Fit for surgical lymphadenectomy, as determined by the local MDT. The patient should also be considered fit for extended field radiotherapy in cases where lymphadenectomy is being undertaken to inform radiotherapy planning
•5. Able and willing to give written informed consent and to comply with the study protocol procedures; Target Gender: Female ; Lower Age Limit 18 no age limit or unit specified

•1. Known contraindication to MRI or PET/CT scan
•2. Known allergy to FDG or FEC
•3. Not considered fit for lymphadenectomy (open or laparoscopic) or, where appropriate, radiotherapy, as determined by the local MDT
•4. If the patient is pregnant or breastfeeding
•5. Females of childbearing potential must be willing to use an effective method of contraception (hormonal or barrier method of birth control; abstinence) from the time consent is signed until 6 weeks after treatment discontinuation
•5. Note: subjects are not considered of childbearing potential if they are surgically sterile (they have undergone bilateral tubal ligation or bilateral oophorectomy) or they are postmenopausal
•6. Females of childbearing potential must have a negative pregnancy test prior to being registered for the study
•7. Medical or psychiatric illness, which makes the patient unsuitable or unable to give informed consent
