F-fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) positron emission tomography-computed tomography (PET/CT) has of late gained prominence in the investigation of cervical cancer since it gives a better clarity on imaging modalities for the status of the lymph node and distant metastasis. The current review is an appraisal of the recent updates on the role of FDG-PET/CT in the screening of cervical cancer as evidenced by publications till date. 985 studies were obtained in the initial search on cervical cancer and publications selected based on inclusion and exclusion criteria. In the final selection, 14 were selected and coded as the most appropriate for the present review. Valuable studies on (FDG) PET/CT have been identified. These studies point to the fact that recent advanced protocols like PET/CT supported by therapeutic innovations ensure better cancer care and survival chances in cervical cancer patients.
